SCROLL SAW SANDER

[@floridabeardedwoodworker]

Doug says “60 coats of lacquer” like thats what everyone does…. LOL you are awesome Doug.

[@fleetswoodshop3339]

Yeah buddy I learned my lesson on that one too many coats of lacquer. And it started to do that crackling effect. But it was sure a lot of fun making that piece I'm going to be working on something like that very similar here again soon. And great to hear from you buddy indeed and I hope you're doing wonderful.

My claim to fame is that I mostly scroll in my old age and have never bought sanding strips but will be making some using your method. Thanks Douglas.

[@fleetswoodshop3339]

Great tip again Doug !!!

[@fleetswoodshop3339]

Hey buddy I appreciate that and I hope you find it useful my friend. It really works good for me. By gluing the two belts together the glue makes the paper on the Sandpaper very tough. And really works well and thank you my friend so much you're so kind. From Doug

[@thisoldman7142]

Great video. I’ve been trying to figure out how to copy the store bought sanding strips. With re-useable ends. You just proved I don’t need “ends”. Saved me a sleepless night trying to figure it out. Thanks.

[@fleetswoodshop3339]

My friend thank you so much for reaching out. I can't tell you how much I appreciate that I truly truly do. And I'm very glad The idea helped you. The back-to-back sandpaper has really been a big help for me lately. And I hope it works great for you to my friend. From Doug

[@thisoldman7142]

@ I just went out to my workshop after dinner, cut a piece of 220, 3/8” wide x 10” long and folded it in half ( 3/8” x 5”). Put in my scroll saw and used it to sand a 3D, compound Christmas decoration I’m working on and when I came back into the house I had a smile on my face…thanks again. Something I learned on my first try…be careful with the tension.

[@fleetswoodshop3339]

@thisoldman7142 I'm so glad that worked out for you my friend and you're right you have to be careful with attention .I did another little trick That I never showed on the video I folded a piece of sandpaper around a scroll saw blade and glued it to the old scroll shop bit which gave me the metal end sticking out to still clamp it to the post. It seems to work pretty good. But it was sticker than just folding the 2 pieces of sandpaper together

[@retiredlife848]

Wow, that's a lot of work but the end product was worth it. Another beautiful piece by the 🤓!

[@fleetswoodshop3339]

Hey my friend yeah it is a lot of work about 15 hours on that bowl. I think I filmed about 9 hours of it 9 hours and 12 minutes with the camera said. But I don't think anybody on planet Earth would watch a 9 hour video about a bowl that would be kind of boring LOL. I've got three other turning projects I'm working on right now and one of them when it's all said and done will be about 2 months worth of work on and off that is of course. Thank you my friend great to hear from you again from Doug

[@guybowers9094]

As always, Doug, you come up with inventive and creative ideas for the shop. I always look forward to your next post with excitement

Really cool! I made grass with my scroll saw when I first started, but I didn't do any sanding or shaping! Now I wanna try again after watching this😊

[@fleetswoodshop3339]

Well thank you my friend thank you very much. There's always a lot of fun to be had on a scroll saw . I appreciate you reaching out i Surely do and I hope you have a blessed day from Doug

[@lifelikelines]

​@@fleetswoodshop3339I bought those sander things for my scroll saw a while back, they didn't fit in it. Lol. I had to cut the ends down to make em fit. Then they weren't even very useful. I'll try your idea with scraps next time. Also spiral blades are awesome! I read so many bad reviews, but they were do neat I had to try em. Unfortunately right now I can't get non pin end blades to stay in my scroll saw. I can't figure out why😢

[@fleetswoodshop3339]

@@lifelikelines I'm sorry to hear you haven't that problem my friend look Up Pegasus scroll Up clamps on Amazon and see if they make one for your scroll saw. They work awesome. The question is do they make one for whatever saw you're using. And yes the sandpaper scraps work wonderful especially when they glue back-to-back. I hope that helps you my friend

[@charlescarberry1315]

Great tips I am going to have to try it out. Don't really use the scroll saw much but some projects it is required. Keep up the great videos love watching them.

[@fleetswoodshop3339]

You're by far my favorite woodsmith and a true inspiration to shop organization. My shop is not in this class, but Sir I am trying. Issues I have is woodworking and metal working, we do both and the dust and particles get everywhere. I did get a little smarter, got the shop next door for metal now. Love your videos, I do a few as well, enjoy sharing my mistakes haha.

[@fleetswoodshop3339]

Hey there good to hear from you and thank you my friend thank you so much . I'm so glad to hear you have a metal shop .😀😀I wish I did, I don't I just have one little welding bench . but I don't do that much welding I'm not that great at it. Thank you so much for your kind words I am honored. And I'm so glad you liked the videos my friend I'll keep more coming. I'll check out your channel buddy thank you thank you so much . from Doug

[@fleetswoodshop3339]

Hey my friend I checked out your video. On the welding rack you made for holding the gun but to do carving and sanding and detail work on it and such. And that is awesome. I have a gun shop right next door to me and they do repair work on guns like that also. I've bought many from them over the years and had them do some work on some too. They're called Black Gold Guns and Ammo. They're on karbach Street. In Houston a gentleman by the name of Gordon Taylor owns the shop. He's a great guy he looks just like Santa Claus and he plays Santa Claus every year here in Houston and has been for years. I don't know if he's on KZbin I don't think so. I wanted to leave you a comment on your video but I couldn't. And I caught one of your videos a while back and gave you a sub I was very impressed. And thank you my friend thank you so good to hear from you from Doug

Hello Doug, nice sunburst for heavy lacquer like that you should add a flexible agent to your laquer but you have to make your own, have fun my friend.

[@fleetswoodshop3339]

Hey my friend how are you doing great to hear from you buddy. That was done a long time ago before I knew that much about finishes. But thanks for the tip. Very much I know about thinning out lacquer but I've never heard of putting a flexible agent. Into the lacquer I'll have to look into that thank you for the heads up my friend. And I hope you're doing well and staying safe buddy. Great to hear from you. From Doug

[@nancybrennemann2203]

Hey, Doug! really great idea I had not heard before. I don’t have a scroll saw in my shop but when I do, I’ll definitely use that tip. You made anything lately with epoxy? I’ve been looking for walnut I’d like to use with epoxy but it has gotten so darn expensive I don’t want to spend it! Maybe you have a better supply in Texas than we do here in ohio! Take care…

[@fleetswoodshop3339]

Hey Miss Nancy how are you doing. And so great to hear from you. I am so so sorry it took me so long to respond for some reason KZbin had your comment in my held for review section. And I have no idea why. And yes ma'am I know walnuts getting very expensive all wood is. I put out a woodturning in resin video yesterday at the same time I release the scroll saw video it's called Jake's Bowl. And absolutely I'm just about finished up with a bowl with a hole. Which is done with resin. And I'm finishing up a video on some knife handles made of resin. Hopefully they'll both be coming out Monday or Tuesday next week at the latest. The only three places that I could recommend for walnut. Would be. Houston hardwood lumber. On 34th Street in Houston. Are Clarks hardwood lumber. In the Heights off of I-10 and studemont. Are any of the woodcrafter stores. But all their prices have gone up. And how good it is to hear from you I always love hearing from you. And yes I'm going to be concentrating mostly on wooden resin projects in the upcoming future that's what I enjoy doing the most. And I'm so glad you reached out my friend thank you very very much. From Doug

[@bobicard2503]

Great idea, but what if the scroll saw doesn't have the fastening attachment for the blades like yours does? Mine doesn't, maybe I can find a refit device...

[@fleetswoodshop3339]

Hello Bob my friend how are you doing. Thank you for reaching out my friend thank you very much, There is a very very good aftermarket company Call pegas. That makes after market scroll saw clamps. You can find them on Amazon. They make a very good quality aftermarket blade mount. I've actually bought them to replace my factory mount clamps.

Is there anyway to replace the sandpaper on the “bought” strips with the plastic ends you showed? Or even mounting/gluing new paper to the backside that has no grit? Thank you..

[@fleetswoodshop3339]

Hey there my friend how you doing. No you can't replace it. But you could see it a glue a strip to the backside of it and put it in backwards. You could probably even do that a couple of times. I would think .Great idea buddy.from Doug

[@valeriehenschel1590]

Is that the same wood as what is know as pink ivory?

[@fleetswoodshop3339]

Hey my friend how are you doing. No pink flame as a South African wood it's very soft but very beautiful grain. It's a relation to piranha Pine. Piranha Pine has a very nice grain but pink flame has a much prettier grain. Pink Ivory is mostly found in Venezuela and Guatemala. And it's a very hard tight grain wood. But you have a very good eye for suggesting that. Pink Ivory is also very very rare I haven't been able to acquire a sample of it as of yet. And thank you so much for watching and asking I truly and sincerely appreciate that. From Doug
