Flying Dutchman Blades

09-09-2005, 09:00 PM

Can anyone tell me the web site forflying dutchman blades. I've been ordering Olson's but I would like to try something else. Nothing wrong with the Olson's I like the spirals and the new mach series. I am always looking for that little extra advantage. I love my g4 so switching blades in and out to try something new isn't a issue.

P.S. Isn't it just the way it always works. I had neck fusion surgery 8 weeks ago. I have walked out and looked at my saw everyday.In just the last week I have felt like sitting down and cutting something out.Yesterday the doctor told me that I could go back to work. Oh well 1 hour a day on my saw is still better than 10 hours making windows.

I've used 1/4 and 1/8" blades from different sources with good results. I use carbon fiber blade blocks so I can put the blade in the middle of the blocks. You have to "tune" the blade for your specific saw. Several videos on YouTube on how to tune band saw blades.

Very interesting and well done projects. I have not tried a 1/8" blade but think I will. Can you tell us the brand of blade, tooth count and what bandsaw you are using. Sorry to be asking so many questions but you have the knowledge. Also, any tips for using that small of a blade.

thanks Carole. I used the band saw with a 1/8" blade - not much different than the scroller but I have to use other methods to do the insides of the letters where the band saw can't reach. All the while, WISHING I had a scroll saw. and now, that I've got one, I'll be venturing back into dimensional...

Very impressive work, John. I like the tooled leather look, the detailed calligraphy, and especially the rendition of the brushes and other tools that you use for your craft. It will be interesting to see how you incorporate the scroll saw into your work, and the opportunities it provides you.
