    Good-bye ol' Dremel, Hello DeWalt

    Well I cant say I am heart broken over my Dremel locking up, Lowe's refunded my money in full, which I turned around an applied towards a DeWalt 788.

    Now I just have to wait for it to arrive since I had to special order it, and hope I dont have any problems with the blade/pin clamps. My hopes are high since my friend Michael got his and it was fine. I'll check for that first thing when I break it out of the box, and if no problems I'll be back to making saw dust.

    In the mean time....I am suffering withdrawls

        A family friends father passed away and he was an avid bird carver. So my nephew is helping the family sell some of his tools. I bought this air cleaner and will b uy most of his carving knives and burrs. And no that is not my workshop! Not even close. ...

        I just did a quick job on my table. Charles Hand has noticed that the adhesive on the new rolls of Contact brand shelf paper leaves a residue. He has changed to The duck brand. I just bought a roll and covered my table with it. It is a tough slick surface. It will be interesting to see how it holds...

        Yes, they can be used for hair. If they are made a little larger than the original, the shawl pins will work great in the hair!...

        Rolf, smaller bowl-cutting angles, 30˚ or less, usually don't present a problem either with vibration or for cutting into the table. It's when you get into the 40˚ and 45˚ range that things get dicey for both. (The Seyco saw doesn't even cut bevels greater than 35˚ or so!) If you add even a slight...

        I've done some bevel cutting on my EX-21 as well and also have not experienced any added vibration, nor have I cut into the table. Perhaps I haven't cut at a steep enough angle, but the existing blade hole has been sufficient. I do despise the useless vacuum holes, but I've learned to live with them...
