Re: DeWalt scroll saw vibration
I had the same problem with my RBI Hawk and the problem was a uneven floor. I solved the problem by putting concrete paving stones under the Table legs. The stones are 12' X12' X 1' thick and only cost a buck apiece at the local home center. If it don't work, you can always use them in the garden as stepping stones! Good luck !

Re: DeWalt scroll saw vibration
Perchjerker;
I just found this site so sorry for the late reply. I had a vibration problem with my DeWalt when I owned one and I found that by moving it to many different locations on my wood floor untill I found the best spot was the answer for me. My DeWalt is long gone now because it wore out and I am now using a different make.

by John Smiththanks 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...07-01-2022, 07:21 PM

by handibunnyVery 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.07-01-2022, 06:31 PM
