For an absolute beginner on the scroll saw, this was a wonderful help for me. Thank you.
I'm glad that you found it helpful. Please feel free to ask any questions you might have along the way. I'd be more than happy to help if I can. Thanks for tuning in
The haters will say, "what a lame video, duh, I knew this stuff." To them I say, "SHUT UP!" I have been a woodworker for nearly 60 years in one form or another (kid robbing scrap piles from houses being built in the 1950's, carpenter doing framing and finish work, cabinet maker, you name it. But until last week the scroll saw that was given to me sat atop a stand in my woodworking shop with a broken blade and would occasionally receive a nasty glance from me with the veiled thought, "if eyes were knives," well you get it. Now because you took the time to present the basics I have a pack of blades being delivered tomorrow and I will know EXACTLY what to do with them and will add scroll sawing to my bag of tricks after some set-up and practice. Thank you Kenny, you are exactly what I needed to start something new. Your work here is very much appreciated.
Well thank you very much for the kind words this morning Dan. I truly appreciate them. I produce this weekly show with one thought in mind and that thought is, that as long as the show helps one person then it was worth all the time and effort that it takes to film, edit and post it. I don't monetize the show so my viewers aren't subjected to advertisements and because I don't monetize the show, I don't make a dime from it and have no desire to. I do it because I love what I do and I love helping others by sharing what I know. I hope that you have some good luck with the scroll saw but just remember, that it takes practice. There are a couple of scroll saw for beginners videos on my channel as well as a show on scroll saw blades and their purpose and limitations. Please feel free to ask any questions that you might have along the way and I will do my best to answer them to the best of my ability. Thanks for tuning in to the show and for taking the time to leave me a comment. I truly appreciate that.
Thank you very much on such an informative scroll saw tutorial. Just purchased a 20” Porte Cable scroll saw and this info..came in at the right time. I’ll be looking forward in learning from other videos you may have on this subject. Once again, thanks. Luis
I agree wholeheartedly, Dan.
I have a fair sized shop. In it can be found two high end bandsaws, one for scrolling and one for re-sawing. Also found there is a cabinet saw, 4'x6' carving machine, over-arm router, drum, disk, spindle and flat sanders, two lathes, about eleven routers, three dust collectors and on and on.
Though I've been making sawdust since around 72 and have done a lot of things others haven't, it remains I, like others, haven't done a lot of things others have. I'd never so much as touched a lathe before a couple years ago, so knew nothing of operating one. Now I can say I've got several miles on one and have done unique things others haven't.
The scroll saw, strange little machine that it is, was foreign to me too, but unlike the lathe and though I bought my first [used] Hegner about ten or so years ago, I've never really taken advantage of it.
I, like Kenny and others, enjoy sharing. I dislike imbecilics who mock other for not knowing something they claim to know. In fact, a
while back a fellow was mocking those who didn't know how to run a drill press in metal. Because of my dislike for bullies like him, I took no small amount of pleasure holding him out for his ignorance regarding my woodwork, copper plating, granite work, electronics and, of course, law.
So, thank you Kenny, and the likes of Dan for his defense of fine work.
but when does the video start?
I would say to them, if you know all this stuff, why did you waste your time watching it? I found it to be quite good really.
As a beginner I truly appreciate the time and effort you have taken to make these videos! ❤️❤️❤️
I'm really glad that you are finding these videos helpful. That is the whole reason that I make this show is to be helpful to others and it always make me glad when I hear that I've helped someone out. Thanks for tuning in to the show and for taking the time to leave me a comment. If you have any questions at all, please don't hesitate to ask. If I can help out, I'd be more than happy to.
I appreciate everything you taught in this video. My husband always wants to jump right into things on his own, whereas I like to start with the ultimate basics and learn from there. This had so much useful information that will give me the confidence to get started. Thank you!
I'm glad that you enjoyed the show Karen. Please don't hesitate to ask any questions that you might have along the way. I'd be more than happy to help if I can. Thanks for tuning in
I enjoyed it too. I've always jumped in, usually deep. I'm multi crafted with a lot of experience but this is a new tool for me. Because I want to build this project soon, I'm 71 in a couple of weeks. It's complex, with different species of woods, glass, copper, zinc and brass. I appreciate your lesson and the quality of the teaching. I'll be back. Lol. Thank you for all your help. I like the trick about the tape/lube. That's a Great one! Be blessed, by The One who is The Blessing.
I just picked up a used but new to me 156" Delta scroll. I of course watched all these "beginner" videos and not one told the story of how not easy scrolling really is. Thank you for being real with us. I dove into the saw with a very simple pattern and butchered it because of the "look how easy it is" videos. However, now I know just where I went wrong. I'll be coming back for more content!
Scrolling is the most relaxing form of woodworking there is Teresa, but it takes practice. There are very few people out there who have a natural ability to do this well on the first try. People will claim that they are naturals at it but I find it hard to believe. I'm glad that you found the show useful. I try to give a realistic approach to woodworking and that includes showing mistakes and errors and how to correct them. I'm glad that you recognize the realistic approach to this video. Thanks for tuning in to the show and if you ever have any questions, please don't hesitate to ask. I would be more than happy to help if I can.
What a great video for a beginner. My scroll saw arrives tomorrow. Very glad I found this.
You're going to love scrolling Craig. It is by far, the most relaxing for of woodworking. Just remember that it takes practice and no-one is great at it from the start. If you have any questions along the way, please don't hesitate to ask. I'd be more than happy to help if I can. Thanks for tuning in to the show
Don’t consider myself a complete beginner, but as someone returning after 25+ years, this is just what I needed.
I hope you were able to take something positive away from the show. Thanks for tuning in.
The best video I have ever seen on using the scroll saw. Thank you !
Glad that you found it useful Hywel. Thanks for tuning in and for taking the time to leave the kind words. I appreciate it.
As always you teach in a sensible, relaxed and friendly way. I’m 78 and have not had great results in my occasional scroll sawing attempts over the years. I don’t have a lot of experience time left to make me better so I tuned in, lol. I figure that the few minutes I spent watching this video have saved me countless hours of learning by doing and making just OK, instead of very nice, projects. You have communication skills that equal your crafting abilities. Thanks, kid!
You're very welcome Gary. I'm glad that this video was able to help you. If you ever have any problems or questions, you can always feel free to contact me and I will be more than happy to help if I can. Good luck on your scrolling and thank you for tuning in to the show.
Excellent video. I am a total amateur DIYer and looking for something new to play with thought of carving with a scroll saw. Knew nothing about it until I found these videos and they have been both extremely helpful, from a technical point of view and encouraging from creating enthusiasm perspective. Thanks for all the time and effort you put into these videos with superb camera works alongside informative and understandable dialogue. Cheers from Belfast Northern Ireland
Well a big cheers from Canada, right back at ya. Thanks for tuning in to the show and for taking the time to leave a comment. I appreciate the kind words. Glad to hear that you enjoyed the show. Please feel free to ask any questions you might have.
@@acutabove_woodworkings Thanks so much for the fast reply , glad you are still publishing videos , I wasn’t sure given this video was four years ago.
I thinking of getting a scroll saw lol Your video is a great help.
@@lisalovelylpa You're very welcome. As I said, if you have any questions, please don't hesitate. You can ask them here, via the channel's Facebook page or via email. Whatever you are comfortable with.
Managed to use my scroll saw for the first time today since buying it almost a month ago. I watched this video several times the night before and liked the circle part - feed rate = rotation rate... Yes it is much harder than it looks, I know nothing is ever as easy as it looks, and my first circle would not look out of place in a gearbox. After an hour or so was better. Practice, practice, practice. Really enjoyed it though. Thanks for the videos they are really helpful.
I'm glad to hear that you found this show helpful Scotty. You should keep that first circle and hang it by your scroll saw so that you can see where you started and where you are 6 months or 6 years down the line. I still have one of my original pieces and although it looks all crooked and wonky, I am still proud of it because it was where I started. Thanks for tuning in to the show and if you have any questions along the way, please don't hesitate to ask.
Thanks for the video. I am one of those who owned a scroll saw for a long time and never used it. It's time to get rid of the dust on the saw and start using it. I find your video very helpful and informative.
You are very welcome. Good luck with your scrolling and if you have any questions along the way, please don't hesitate to ask. I'd be more than happy to help if I can. Thanks for tuning in.
Thank you so much for this informative video on the basics of scrolling. I just bought a used one, with no manual and no one to help me. I’m a female DIYer who loves working with wood, and smaller projects, and my table saw and old mitre saw aren’t helping. I’m excited to learn and create just the basics right now. The info you presented was so helpful for me, especially about the blades. Knowing the basics are important. If you don’t have a good foundation you can’t progress to bigger and better work. Having just done a test run, I can relate what I did wrong to what you explained. Your information is invaluable!
Glad to hear that you found the show to be useful Sharon. Woodworking is a wonderful hobby that can give you years of satisfaction. I have been working with wood for 43 years now and I have no intention of stopping any time soon. Feel free at any time, to contact me with any questions you might have. You can reach me via email, commenting on the show or through the channel's Facebook page. All of that information is available in the channel's "about" section. I hope you will find other episodes of the show that interest you. The show airs twice a week with woodworking being the Friday episode of the show and Tuesdays can be anything that strikes my fancy that day. Good luck with your adventure and please feel free to ask questions.
If it took two months to get a reply, how can I be sure you’re still available to help? I have since gotten a new scroll saw and will need your help as often as possible. I haven’t gotten any videos from you at all. I don’t have Facebook and don’t like it so I need you tube videos to give me the information I will need to succeed.I’ll check my subscription again to make sure it’s active and the bell is on. Otherwise I’ll have to pull up your videos as needed. Thank you for getting back to me.
@@gizmo7877 My reply to you on your comment was posted the very next day after you posted it. There are times that I miss replying to a comment but it's pretty rare. I don't know why you aren't getting notifications about the show being posted because it is posted EVERY Tuesday and Friday. They are not all scroll saw videos but there might be information to help you in them. A while back, RUclips changed the way they notified channel subscribers. They used to get an email every time the show was posted and now, RUclips has stopped doing that. They now deem that placing a notification dot beside my channel's name in your subscriptions section is notification enough. Sorry, but I don't control how RUclips does things. If you have any questions or need to contact me, you can always feel free to email me at kennye@acutabovewoodworkings.com . I hope this helps. I would also check your RUclips preferences to make sure that your permissions are allow notifications. Hope to hear from you soon.
great tutorial im Learning i lost my husband suddenly recently im hoping to start a hobby to keep busy
I am so sorry for your loss. Scrolling is a very relaxing hobby and I am sure that you will enjoy it. Take your time, take frequent breaks and remember how proud your husband would be of you, for learning something new. Please feel free to ask whatever questions you may have along the way. I would be more than happy to help if I can. Thank you for tuning in to the show.
thank you 😉💗
😭
I’m so sorry, keep busy with a hobby you love. It will help heal your soul
I pray all is well🤲🏾 I’ve found woodworking to be so therapeutic for me. Much love to you and your family ❤️
I have just bought a scroll saw and have never used one before. This information is gold- thank you. Flaxen Saxon.
You're very welcome. I'm glad that you found the information to be useful. Thanks for tuning in to the show and if you have any questions, please don't hesitate to ask. I'd be more than happy to help if I can.
Thank you so much for your time and patience making this, and future, videos. I am 68 yrs young and finally checking off one of my many bucket list items...wood working with a scroll saw. And yes to a recent viewer, I am still a user of graphic paper!
Good for you for taking the plunge Carolyn. I hope you enjoy it. Please feel free to ask any questions that you may have along the way. I would be more than happy to help if I can. You can email me at kennye@acutabovewoodworkings.com. Don't forget to check out my website for plenty of free download patterns. I hope this helps. Thanks for tuning in.
Thank you so much for this video. I just found a nice Craftsman Scroll Saw at the Restore (Habitat for Humanity) stores for 35.00 bucks in great condition and with extra blades. Since I sew, I figured it would be pretty much the same. I broke 2 blades playing with it yesterday and today I was able to cut 2 zero clearance insert for my table saw. I am very satisfied with what I've accomplished just in 2 days.
Just like I thought. It's just like a sewing machine, but on steroids. I freaking love it! :-)
Good for you for jumping right in there with both feet and giving this a try. The biggest difference between a sewing machine and the scroll saw is that with a scroll saw, there is blade drift and deflection through wood grain and other naturally occurring factors. It takes a little practice to use a scroll saw to overcome those factors. Keep enjoying your new machine. (great deal by the way). If you have any questions, please don't hesitate to ask. I would be more than happy to help if I can. Thank you for tuning in to the show.
@@acutabove_woodworkings You are welcome. I went to print a template for practice and my ADD (my "hey look, a butterfly", moments) got it confused with paper cutting art. LoL I printed those instead of the template for scroll s(e)wing. LoL However, I rather learn to do this than cut paper. Never was fond of paper cuts. 😏
@@sassygil6675 Don't blame you. I'm not a fan of paper cuts either. I'm a bit of a wuss.
Just got my first scroll saw at the age of 70. Did most things with wood including turning, so thought I'd give it a go. Having watched your video I'm a lot wiser so thank you for posting.
We are never too old or too wise to learn new things. Good for you for trying something new Colin. Good luck with the new venture and if you have any questions along the way, please don't hesitate to ask. I'd be more than happy to help if I can. Thanks for tuning in to the show.
Great instructions Kenny I told my wife to pay close attention and I hope she did. Seven years ago I bought her (on her request) a second scroll saw for the shop. She puttered with it for maybe an hour and couldn't keep the stock down on the up lift of the blade. She got scared of it and has less than two hours total on the new saw now. She knows I like watching your channel and respect you as a woodworker with skill so maybe now I can get her out into the shop with me. Did I say that I enjoyed the video? Well I did.
God Bless my friend.
Glad to hear that you enjoyed the show Frank. While most woodworkers find the shop to be a place of masculinity and testosterone, I rather enjoy it when my wife comes out to work on a project. There's something special about sharing your passion with the person that you already share everything with. I hope that your wife does, in fact, get back at the scroll saw and that she excels at it. As I've always offered to everyone on my show, you wife is more than welcome to ask me any questions that she would like if she has problems with her scrolling that you are unable to guide her through. Please encourage her to get back at it. I would love to see some of her creations.
Excellent video. Thank you so much. I am totally new to scroll sawing. Haven’t even taken the saw out of the box yet. You’re teaching style is superb.
I have read a few comments posted in his videos, and I'm impressed at how this gentleman reads and actually takes the time to respond to in a pleasant way and even volunteers to answers any other questions they might have.. what a great guy and GOD bless him.. I subbed and thumbs upped the vid..
Thank you for the kind words. I do appreciate that. I try my best to answer each and every comment that is posted on the show. I don't see the point in having a fun and educational channel, if I am not willing to reply to the good people that take time out of their day to watch my show. I hope that you will continue to find the content on the show to be entertaining and educational. Thank you for subscribing and I look forward to seeing your comments on other episodes of the show. Thanks for tuning in. Glad to have you as a viewer.
I'm a beginner to scrolling. All the information you present is in a good pace and is very concise with other sources I have read/watched. Thank you for making this video!
Glad that you enjoyed the show Chris. If you have any questions along the way, please don't hesitate to ask. I'd be more than happy to help if I can. Thanks for tuning in.
I learned a few things here but I had it on x2 speed and was skipping when it was something I knew. Thank you for taking the time to put this video together.
That's the good thing about RUclips, you can skip what you need to and watch what you want to. Thanks for tuning in to the show.
Outstanding presentation! Kenny (love the name) not only shows his preferred procedures and methods gleaned from years of experience; he mentions other modalities that might be a tad more effective or comfortable for others. I also appreciate his philosophy that this endeavor is meant to be enjoyable, not a race! A dear friend who introduced me to scroll sawing said that this activity is akin to playing a video game; relaxing, entertaining, rewarding... not work, so don't make it so. Although a novice at scrolling, I am quite experienced and skilled at other woodworking, yet I almost always learn something new when viewing a well produced tutorial; which is exactly what this is. Thank you so much.
Glad to hear that you liked the show and found it useful Kenneth (love the name). I appreciate all the kind words and I wish you luck on your scrolling adventure. If you ever have any questions at all, please don't hesitate to ask. I'd be more than happy to help out if I can. Thanks for tuning in to the show.
Owned a Delta 15" scroll saw for a year now, just took it out of the box. I have never used one or even seen someone use one. I had a hard time just setting the blade. lol Bought it from a lady who's husband had passed away and she was just looking to get rid of everything.
Thanks for making this 2 part series!!
I'm glad that you found the series to be helpful Adam. Good luck on your scrolling adventures. If you have any questions along the way, please don't hesitate to ask. I'd be more than happy to help if I can.
As a newbie to scrolling I really appreciate the cadence and quality of the information being shared Kenny. I was easily able to digest and appreciate the practical wisdom in your instruction. Thank you so much for taking the time to look out for us newbies. I can't wait to get to work on my new scroll saw and feel well equipped to do so! I will move on to part two after I have done properly setting up practicing and getting acquainted with my new saw.
Paul Hurley
You're very welcome Paul. I'm glad that you find the show helpful. Please, during your learning, if you have any questions, don't hesitate to ask and I will do my best to help as much as I can. Good luck with your scrolling. Have fun.
Thank you. I was thinking of getting a scroll saw. I’ll stick with my drill, jig saw and ridgid sander until this project is complete and then look again at scroll saws. It looks like a learning curve is needed. Thank you again for your teaching video.
You're very welcome Robin. While there is a learning curve to the scroll saw, it can be overcome by practice. I hope you do decide to get a scroll saw soon as it is the most relaxing form of woodworking, bar none. When you are ready, if you have any questions, please don't hesitate to ask. I'd be more than happy to help if I can. Thanks for tuning in to the show.
a big thank you to you sir. bought scroll saw 3 weeks ago tried it last nite and I was less than impressed with the cut. and then I watched your vid on setting up . this morning I've squared the blade to the table. and have the blade more central in the insert . and now I'm well impressed . THANK YOU
You're very welcome zigzag. I'm glad to hear that you show way helpful to you. If you have any questions along the way, please don't hesitate to ask. I would be more than happy to help you out. Thanks for tuning in to the show.
This 4 year old video is relevant to me today. So glad I found your video! Tks so much.
Glad to hear it was useful Joy. Thank you for tuning in to the show and please feel free to ask any questions that you might have. I'd be more than happy to help if I can.
I am a retired carpenter and have for xmas bought myself my first scroll saw. Even though I know/understand the concepts of scroll sawing I have never tried it. That said, I want to thank you for this video, it has been so helpful. As soon as I get my saw up to the workshop and set up tomorrow I will be back to watch part two. Thanks again.
You're very welcome Steve. I'm glad that you enjoyed the video and found it to be useful. We are never too old or too experienced to learn something new. Good for you for taking the initiative to learn a new skill. Thanks for tuning in to the show. I hope you enjoy part 2.
Awesome video. Easy to follow, great video angles, content well organized, and perfect for somebody just getting into scroll saw work. Thanks for taking the time to put this together!
You're very welcome Greg. I'm glad to hear that you enjoyed the show. It's a lot of work to produce, film, edit and post a show twice a week, plus hold down a full time job as well and to get comments like yours, makes it all worth it. Thanks for tuning in to the show and for taking the time to leave such an encouraging comment. I appreciate your support.
Trying to start a new hobby after losing my husband who was a lover of woodworking. Scrolling seems like something I, a crafter, could learn. I bought a Dewalt 788, thinking how hard can this be? It's hard. Your video made me feel so much more comfortable about the learning curve. Much appreciated. I will be watching the rest of the series.
Scrolling is not a natural thing and there are very few people who are good at it right out of the gate. You've got yourself a decent saw there in the DW788 and I encourage you to continue practicing to improve your skills. If you ever have any questions at all, please feel free to ask. Whether it be here on RUclips or privately via the channel's Facebook page or via email, I would be more than happy to help if I can. Thank you for tuning in to the show. It is very much appreciated.
Nice tutorial. Thank you. I was fortunate to have a generous mentor/teacher who introduced me to scrolling. (Salute to you Norm Nichols. Forever grateful for your kindness). Didn't continue, didn't practice. Didn't keep in touch. Life happened. Am resuming after good 7-8 years. Dusted off old Dremel. Sawed three names last three nights in a row. Not perfect but better than not doing it. I'll be watching your videos for refresher and help moving forward. Thanks again.
I love stories like this. Scrolling is the most relaxing form of woodworking available in my opinion and I'm glad that you have rediscovered it. Thanks for tuning in to the show and for taking the time to share your tale. If you have any questions along the way, please don't hesitate to ask. I'd be more than happy to help if I can.
I am just, just working up my nerve to start using my new-to-me scroll saw. The previous owner was a gifted engineer and crafter of precision model aircraft, so no pressure. I hope his spirit is hanging about to help me out. But if not, this AWESOME video is going to be the ticket. Thank you for taking the time to pass on your knowledge. Until we humans can do knowledge dumps via a USB port located just behind our right ears, this is the next best thing. Thank you! 🇨🇦
I'm glad that you found the video to be helpful. Don't be intimidated by the scroll saw. I'm sure that even your gifted friend had to start somewhere. Just jump in and have fun. If you have any questions along the way, please don't hesitate to ask. Thanks for tuning in to the show.
Thanks a bunch, my brother who lives several states away bought most of the large woodworking tools and stands my husband had in the garage. All of a sudden, I have been getting more and more involved with wanting to work with wood after I bought myself a power tool kit to modify and reinforce a fence line for my dog. I REALLY wish I at least had the miter saw back. But, one thing my brother didn’t take was a Dremel 10” variable speed scroll saw. I just discovered what it was tonight and am ready to learn what I can do with it. You are explaining things so thoroughly and I’m hoping it will make me more comfortable and confident when I do decide to power it up.
I hope you do power it up and try it Jennifer. It takes practice but it's fun practice and you would be amazed at how many projects are applicable to the scroll saw. If you have any questions along the way, please don't hesitate to contact me and ask. I'd be more than happy to help if I can. Thanks for tuning in to the show.
Can you tell me where you bought your 2” square. The smallest I w found is 4 1-2”
As a new scroll saw owner, I just want to say “Thank you” emphasising some of the stuff in the handbook , but also the practical feed and rotation linkage is something that has stuck 👍🏻
Glad that I could help Philip. Thanks for tuning in to the show. If you have any questions at all, please don't hesitate to ask. I'd be more than willing to help if I can.
Jeez! This is an excellent video. You speak well and quick enough without loosing your focus to keep it from being boring on the multiple topics with no pausing enough for us to loose interest. Well done!
Glad that you liked the show. Thanks for tuning in and for taking the time to leave the kind words. It's appreciated.
You really GET how to teach the basics! Kudos to you for a solid beginner introduction. Thanks!
I'm glad that you liked it John. Thank you for tuning in and for taking the time to leave the kind words. It is very much appreciated. Please don't hesitate to ask any questions you might have.
Thank you for posting this video. I'm getting my new Wen Scroll saw set up today. So excited! I really want to learn how to cut my craft projects with it.
Scrolling is not a natural thing to do and it takes practice Carol. Take your time and enjoy the process. If you have any questions along the way, please don't hesitate to ask. I'd be more than happy to help if I can. Thanks for tuning in to the show.
Immensely helpful for the beginner. Buying my first scroll saw this week, I feel confident to start playing with it, while doing it the correct way. It seems very similar to sewing. I hope my experience with sewing transfers to wood. Thanks so much!
I'm glad that you found the show to be useful Candice. If you have any questions along the way, please don't hesitate to ask. I'd be more than happy to help if I can. thanks for tuning in to the show.
I know this is a old video. After scrolling mini mini different ones, I finally came across yours, that made perfect sense to me, and explained so well felt like I was in a real class! :-) I have a scroll saw my husband bought me two years ago. I still have not tried to use it… I’m happy to say after watching your video I am ready to get started right now. Thank you so much for all the tips and tricks and explaining the full machine! Great video.❤
I'm glad that I was able to help you and inspire you to get going on the scrolling Tiffany. If you have any questions along the way, please don't hesitate to ask. I'd be more than happy to help if I can. You can contact me via Facebook, email or in the comment section here of the channel. Thanks for tuning in.
Good video. I just received a Craftsman 16" (Model #113.236110) for $5.00. It's slightly used but has been sitting for a long time. I downloaded the manual for and have been in the process of cleaning the scroll saw. This video explains all of the basics about the set up and the use of a scroll saw. I am looking forward to getting started. Thank you for the tutuorials!
You're very welcome Rob. I'm glad that you found the video to be useful. Thanks for tuning in and taking the time to leave the kind words.
Thank you. This has been very helpful to me. I finally pulled the cover off mine after 15+ years and I needed this refresher.
Glad that you found the show to be helpful. Good luck in your scrolling adventure. If you have any questions along the way, please don't hesitate to ask. I'd be more than happy to help if I can. Thanks for tuning in to the show.
I'm fascinated with tools and they always intimidate me until I understand how they work in order to get where I want to go. Your teaching method is so wonderfully straight forward, informative and I look forward to learning how to use the scroll saw I'm planning on buying. Thank you!
Good luck with your scroll saw adventures Dace. If you have any questions along along the way, please don't hesitate to ask. I'd be more than happy to help out if I can. Thanks for tuning in to the show.
Thank you SO MUCH for such a detailed video! I just got scroll saw yesterday, never worked with wood before, but already like it and was able to cut pretty accurate circles :) This videos are great helps for rookies like me.
I'm glad that you found the show to be useful Julia. If you have any questions while you are learning to work with the saw, please don't hesitate to ask and I would be more than happy to help if I can. Thank you for tuning in.
I. Had been away from scroll sawing for some time
....your tips were extremely helpful. Thanks.
I'm glad that you found them to be helpful Joseph. Thanks for tuning in to the show and for the kind words.
Nice workshop. Just got my scroll saw yesterday. Didn't even know what a scroll saw was until I watched Joerg Sprave on the Slingshot Channel. Your tutorial is great. Now to watch part two.
Who says men don't read or follow instructions. My saw doesn't get used until I know how to properly use it, change blades and make adjustments/small repairs.
Good for you for wanting to do things the right way Alfy. I hope you found the show to be useful and if you have any questions along the way, please don't hesitate to ask. I'd be more than happy to help if I can. Thanks for tuning in.
New to using , taking free classes at my library..He taught me great basic..check adjustments each time, tension check often, go slow.. so your tips are just what he said, but watching you a few times, I got it!! Looking forward to passing tests..projects.. and feel confident.
Well good luck on your project and your lessons. I wish you all the success in the world. If you have any questions along the way, please don't hesitate to ask. I would be more than happy to help if I can. Thanks for tuning in and good luck with your scrolling.

Excellent video! I just bought my first scroll saw and I’m excited to start using it for my woodworking projects. I’m subscribing. Thank you!
I got a scroll saw for Christmas. I have FINALLY broken it out of the box and am going to try to learn it. Thank you so much for this video. I subscribed. This was VERY useful information and I look forward to more of your videos. My first projects will be some new pickguards for some of my electric guitars... I will eventually move into more elaborate projects, but I feel this will be a fun way to get started!
Glad to hear that you found the show to be useful. If you have any questions along the way, please don't hesitate to ask. I'd be more than happy to help if I can. Thanks for tuning in.
Great video with lots of information. I am a cabinetmaker by trade myself but never had or even used a scroll saw so the infos given by Kenny were very much appreciated. You don't have to be a genius to like this video. Thanks Kenny and always keep your hands clear of blades. ;-)))
Glad to hear that you found the show useful. Thanks for tuning in and taking the time to leave a comment. It is very much appreciated.

Would give it a try and learn! THANK YOU ! THANK YOU🙌🏼😊 !! COULD NOT THANK YOU ENOUGH! Brand New Mega Beginner here🙆🏻♀️✨ Blessings! (new subscriber here🙃)
I am glad to hear that you found this video to be useful. Scrolling is the most relaxing form of woodworking and it takes practice to master but it is just a ton of fun and a great way to spend a couple of hours when you have the free time. I hope you enjoy your journey of learning this new tool and please, if you ever have any questions at all, you can feel free to reach out to me and I will be more than happy to help if I can. You can reach me via the comments section on my videos, via email or through the channel's Facebook page. All that information is in the channel's "about" section of the main page. Thank you for tuning in to the show. It is very much appreciated.
Oh my! Thank you so much for your prompt, kind and fast reply! Sure thing I will look up all the information for questions or doubts. Thank you Kindly🙏🏼 for your time. Blessings🙆🏻♀️✨
@@gloryb9997 You're very welcome. I'm here if you need me.
Thank you so much just got my saw and this is helping immensely.
You're very welcome Bethany. I'm glad to hear that the show was helpful to you and if you have any questions at all, please don't hesitate to ask. I will do my best to help as much as I can. Good luck with your scrolling.
Hello. Thank you for your help in showing how to do the cutting.
I have used a scroll saw loads of times but not with great success but now with your 2 videos I should get better results. Regards Peter Parker
If you have any questions along the way Peter, please don't hesitate to ask. I'd be more than happy to help if I can. Thanks for tuning in and good luck on your scrolling.
Thank you so much for your videos. I am just learning how to scroll and these videos are so very informative. So much appreciated.
You're very welcome Phyllis. I'm glad that you find them to be helpful. Thanks for tuning in to the show.
This video is excellent for scroll saw beginner like me. Other people tend to rush through their video take and I would have to repeat the video several times to allow the information to sink in. You may it easier by taking your time in explaining. Your tutorial is very helpful and I'm looking forward to start scrolling. I just bought my scroll saw and I'm wanting to start making Christmas decorations and watching you video will help me get start. Many thanks for taking your time to make this video. I will be watching your Part 2 video shortly
Glad to hear that you found the show useful Mel. There are plenty of folks who criticize my style of show, stating that it is too long, or I talk too much. I just don't see the point in rushing through a video while you are omitting important information that the viewers might want to have. It's just the way I film the show and I have no intentions of changing that. Please feel free to ask any questions that you might have. I'd be more than happy to help if I can. Thank you for tuning in to the show.
Great instruction and expertise brought down to my novice level of 1 wk scrolling. Thanks sir.
You are very welcome Robert. I'm glad that you enjoyed the show. If you have any questions along the way, please don't hesitate to ask. I'd be more than happy to help. thanks for tuning in.
I enjoyed the video. You touched on some things that I had not considered. I like that you tell people, especially beginners, up front how NOT easy it is. Other vids state the opposite and beginners give up in frustration.
I try my best on my show to give a realistic approach and representation of woodworking Frank. Everything takes practice and there are very few people who are just "naturals" at it. I'm glad that you found the show to be information and honest. Thanks for tuning in and for taking the time to leave the kind words.
Your emphasis on patience is appreciated. I do router carving, and tile work with a Taurus 3 ring saw, and so expanding into scrolling is exciting. Thank you.
As long as you don't expect perfect results right out of the gate, you will do just fine. Good luck on your new adventure and if you have any questions along the way, please don't hesitate to ask. I'd be more than happy to help you out if I can. Thanks for tuning in to the show.
kennyearrings1 Absolutely, lol, my fledgling business and RUclips channel's motto is actually "Never Perfect. Usually Awesome." Part 2 was just as good, thanks again.
That's an awesome motto. Glad you enjoyed part 2
I just put up a short video of my very first scrolling attempt. It went smoothly after watching your videos. Thanks again!
You're very welcome
Thank you! I've had a mini Proxxon scroll saw (for dolls house miniatures) for a few years but gave up after a few attempts at using it - broken blades, crooked lines etc. Now it will be worth getting it out and trying again using your tips. Thanks for you great videos.
You're very welcome Michelle. Good luck with your venture. Be sure to tune in next week for part two of the show and if you have any questions, please don't hesitate to ask. I'd be more than happy to help you out if I can.
Thanks Ken this video really is for the beginner! I used to make Steel Rule Dies, we used to cut the slots in maple plywood for a .030" thick steel blade to fit into, the slot had to accurate within + - .010" ! The SRD's are used to stamp out stickers, and graphic overlays just to give you an idea for usage. Thanks again Ken.
That sounds pretty cool Robert. I'd like to see that process. As for the show, I've had some folks contact me because they are just starting and aren't really sure what to do so this week's and next week's show will be for them to get the basic of basics on scrolling. Thanks for tuning in to the show.
Thanx so much for this! I'm completely new to this. I've never even plugged my machine up. This video is perfect! New subscriber for you!
Glad that you liked the show Shera. Scrolling is, without a doubt the most relaxing form of woodworking that there is and I hope you enjoy it. Please feel free to ask any questions you may have along the way while you are learning the craft. You can either ask your questions here, via email, or at the channel's Facebook page. I would be more than happy to help in any way I can. Thanks for tuning in to the show and for subscribing to the channel. I look forward to your future comments on the show.
Just ran across your tutorial and it was very helpful to me. I like crafty things to do and I want to try my hand at this. But, I know nothing about it and this was extremely helpful and appreciated. I'm retired and want to keep active as much as I can...this should keep my mind and eye-hand coordination going. Thanks. I'm looking forward to part 2.
Glad to hear that you enjoyed the show JoyAnn. Scrolling is one of the safest and most relaxing forms of woodworking and I have been a part of it for well over 22 years now. If you have any questions at all, please don't hesitate to ask and I would be more than happy to help you out if I can. Thanks for tuning in to the show.
I really enjoyed the show,dude your saw looks like its a pleasure to use. I reluctantly use mine,its violent as hell,one speed,wide open is it. It has mashed my fingers so bad they bleed when the blade lifts the stock. Im very appreciative to have it since its a give me,but man its a beast. Another thing for beginners,if they are like i was,i went to lowes and asked for a number 5 blade,they looked at me like i was stupid,they go by tpi where i buy mine. I still don't know what the numbers mean as far as tpi. I just use same concept as a bandsaw blade,more tpi more curve,less tpi thicker stock,less curve. thanks for sharing kenny
Thanks for the kind words Chad. I'm glad that you enjoyed the show. It would seem that with some stores and manufacturers going by the tpi standard, maybe it's time for me to produce on show that dedicates itself to nothing but the blade, blade selection and the use of each one. Sounds like it might be helpful for some folks. Thanks for tuning in tot he show again this week. Good luck taming your beast!!!!!
Thanks Kenny a top video with very clear and easily to understand instructions on the bare basics .
You're very welcome Andrew. I hope you found it useful. Thanks for tuning in and taking the time to leave your comment. If you have any questions along the way, please don't hesitate. I would be more than happy to help if I can.
Thank you so much for the video and schooling. I am looking into getting a scroll saw. This was so helpful.
Glad that you found it to be helpful. If you have any questions along the way, please don't hesitate to ask. I'd be more than happy to help if I can. Thanks for tuning in.
Thank You.....Nice that you are keeping it simple for novices like me.
Glad that you liked it Tony. Thanks for tuning in.
That was awesome you’re a very good teacher, picked up important tips that I had not come across
I'm glad that you found the show to be useful Richard. Thanks for tuning in and for the kind words on the show
I have another question for you is the blade supposed to turn sideways with the wood as you turn or am I adding to much pressure on the blade. Help. Thanks. @@acutabove_woodworkings
This is a pretty basic video but for someone new to the scroll saw this is just what you need. It is explained and shown in easy steps and i think one of the best beginner videos I've seen. You explain things in simple and easy to understand way that will get any beginner off to a great start. I recommend this to all beginners. Thanks for taking the time to pass your knowledge to others. Great video and now to part 2.
Thanks for the kind words on the show Thomas. I hope that you enjoy part two. Thanks for tuning in to the program.
Thank you so much. Have some craft projects want to do it right I’m a bit afraid of it I will go slow.
@@rosemarysmith1121 No need to be afraid of the scroll saw. It is probably the most user friendly tool in the shop and with the scroll saw, although you may get the odd knick or cut, you wont lose a finger with this one. Just practice, take your time and have fun. Good luck and if you have any questions, please don't hesitate to ask. Thanks for tuning in.
Kudos to the editor and cameraman....who may very well be Kenny. Regardless of whether this comes from a team or a one-man show, this is great videography to produce an informative lesson. I just got a Dewalt 788 and, like with my bandsaw, it's been a frustrating learning experience. Thank you Kenny for a job well done.
You're very welcome Lawrence. I'm glad to hear that you found it useful and informative. For the record, I am a one man show. I do all of the filming via tripod and remote control as well as voice activated GoPro cameras for some of it. There is never a script and I just talk as if I would if you were in my shop so the multiple take of the clips is inevitable. The editing process as well, is all me and on average, it take 3-4 hours of work to edit a show, once the filming and uploading is done. Bottom line here....I am the cameraman, editor, producer, writer and star of this one man show and I am extremely pleased that you enjoyed it. Thanks for tuning in and please don't hesitate to ask questions that you may have while you are learning the scroll saw.
This is soooooooo helpful to me!!!!! Thank you!!!!!! I’ll keep watching your content!!!
Glad to hear it. If you have any questions along the way, please don't hesitate to ask. I'd be more than happy to help if I can. Thanks for tuning in
Ken, another great educational video. Most training videos assume that you have a basic knowledge of the operation of the tool. You do a real justice by starting at square one and going from there. Looking forward to the next part, good work. Paul / paulsmessyworkshop
Thanks Paul. I always have a fear that a show like this one will bore my regular viewers as it is such a simple show that starts right from the get go, assuming that the viewer knows absolutely nothing about the machine and its use. I'm glad that you enjoyed it and I'm sure that it will help those out there who have never scrolled before to get a grasp on what they can expect from a scroll saw and how to accomplish some great results through practice. Thanks for tuning in again this week sir. As always, great to hear from you.
Thank you so much. This by far the best the best video I have seen for beginners like me. Clear, concise, well paced and beautifully presented. You are a natural teacher. Can't wait to move on to Part 2.
Glad that you liked it and found it useful John. I hope that you find part 2 to be just as useful. If you have any questions along the way, please don't hesitate to ask. I would be more than happy to help if I can. Thank you for tuning in to the show.
From an absolute beginner to this ....thank you sir!!
Great beginners video….appreciate the section re posture…not many training vids cover this topic. Also appreciate the no rush approach in your delivery…Cheers, Mal 👍🏼🇦🇺
Glad that you liked the show. Thanks for tuning in and for taking the time to leave the kind words. It's very much appreciated.
Very thorough, detailed video. Excellent foundation and best practices presentation. Thank you.
Glad that you liked it Ryan. Thanks for tuning in to the show and taking the time to leave the kind words. It's very much appreciated.
Complete beginner. 2nd hand delta saw arrived yesterday and blades have been ordered. Your video showed me that my understanding of scrolling was way off. It's been a massive help, so thank you. Intend to rewatch part 1 again before I watch part 2. 👍
Glad that you found the show to be useful. Good luck with your scrolling and if you should have any questions along the way, please don't hesitate to ask. I'd be more than happy to help if I can. Thanks for tuning in to the show
@@acutabove_woodworkings that's kind of you. You mentioned bolting the saw down? The delta came with 4 bolts for that purpose but my workshop is too small to have it mounted permanently. I'd been thinking of bolting it to a base of 3/4 inch ply and fixing rubber washers/feet to the ply or should it be bolted down properly?
@@nervouspenguins9982 It should be fixed to a solid surface in order to reduce vibrations. A solid, permanent mounting is preferred, but the saw is still useable if you were temporarily mount it. I might suggestion making yourself a solid scroll saw stand out of 2X4 lumber and mounting it to that. It doesn't have to be mounted to a bench.
@@acutabove_woodworkingsthanks. will look to drilling some holes on by bench so I can bolt it in place when I use it as my workshop is too small for a stand. 👍
@@nervouspenguins9982 Good luck.
Aah, thanks. I've inherited a scroll saw but could not for the life of me, find any instructions on tension.. Now I have something to follow, and a lot of other good tips =)
I hope they help you. If you have any questions along the way, please don't hesitate to ask. I'd be more than happy to help if I can. Thanks for tuning in.
I’ve always run a central machinery scroll saw on a little bench always bounced always kinda been a pain to use. Picking up a two horse belt driven craftsman in a few hours so here I am watching your videos
Well I hope that you find the shows to be useful. Thanks for tuning in and good luck with your new saw.
Thank you for the video; i watched it to the end. i think the part that will help me the most straight away is having a dedicated stand and bolted down. Right now it just hits the work bench when i want and the vibrations and the bouncing deter my desire to play more with it. The video was very clear and informative, i did speed it up to 1.5 to cover it more quickly but then noted the sections i want to come back and revisit. Thank you for taking the time!!!
You're very welcome. Please don't hesitate to ask any questions that you might have about the saw or how to correct problems that you may be having. I'd be more than happy to help you out if I can. Thanks for tuning in.
I just happened across this channel. What a great video. I thought there was lots of valuable info. I hope I can find part 2. As a suggestion I'd like to see one just on different blade types. Thanks.
Not sure if you found it Berry, but here is the link to part 2. ruclips.net/video/BmHuTuOyFZo/видео.html
Also, I've already done a video on the various blade types. You can find that here. ruclips.net/video/UG6S5tqx6bI/видео.html
If you check in the playlists of my channel, there is a scrolling section where you will find all these videos. I hope this helps. thanks for tuning in to the show.
Total Newbie here, thanks for this! I've never seen a scroll saw in use so this was SUPER helpful! Checking out part two now.
Glad to hear that you found the show to be helpful Bill. It's always great to hear from folks who enjoyed the show. Thanks so much for tuning in and for taking the time to leave a comment. If you have any questions, please don't hesitate to ask.
Thank you for giving your time to help us beginners, great video,70 year old just starting out with scrolling
Good for you for taking on the challenge of learning something new Harry. If you ever have any questions, please don't hesitate. I would be more than happy to help if I can. Thank you for tuning in and good luck with your new venture.
i also am 70 yrs old and just starting out doing scrolling
Thank you very much. Just unpacked my first scroll saw. I was not sure where to begin, as manual seems to be for those in the know already, at least now I get it.
You are very welcome Donna. The scroll saw take some time and effort to learn, but once you get it, it is the most satisfying form of woodworking I know. Thanks for tuning in and if you have any questions along the way, please don't hesitate to ask. I'd be more than happy to help if I can.
which one did you purchase? Wanting to buy one for myself too. Have never actually used one. I do all other crafts, painting, making signs, scrapbooking, wreaths, and so much more. I would like to start making my own shapes out of thin pieces of wood for ornaments and such. But so scared I wont get the one that is best for me. Also dont have a ton of extra $ laying around.
@@nebbarnes3404 for smaller sized projects, you can't go wrong with the DeWalt DW788 model. It's a quality saw that will last you for years and years. You can quite often get them on sale or used on the internet. I hope this helps. Thanks for tuning in.
@@nebbarnes3404 I got a Ryobi from Home Depot for like 70 or 75? They didn't carry it in store, I had to order it but it had free shipping. With extra blades and tax it was about 100 total. I think I will be getting a ban saw next. I think that might be super fun to.
My scroll saw arrives Friday. Thanks again and keep it up bubb
I hope you enjoy it Clay. If you have any questions along the way, please don't hesitate to ask. I'd be more than happy to help if I can. Thanks for tuning in to the show.
Excellent instruction. Thank you for offering great detail in getting started with confidence,
