Thanks for taking the time to make this. I am a new scroller and my first cuts looked like they were chewed by a beaver. You are right about watching people on YT who have thousands of hours of practice making it look so easy. I think slowing it down and practicing with your example sheet and videos will get me there. Lots of practice ahead.

Thank you. I have done very little scroll sawing and the person who worked with me YEARS ago did his best but he was not the best teacher. I really want to learn how to do this type of woodworking and for me I NEED to see it done. As a teacher, i must say THE BEST part of your instruction was when you pointed out that videos are made by more experienced people and that we don’t need to “keep up with them.” That is something that as beginners we forget and as teachers we often fail to realize/remember that perspective of the student. I look forward to watching more of your videos.

Millan, I have not used a Craftsman scroll saw before, but I have had a few different brands and I never had to re-tension on changing holes. I would recommend going over the manual for the saw to make sure you are not "Missing something". Maybe someone here that owns the same saw can help better than I can and offer a suggestion. I will say that a new blade will stretch a little bit when first installed and may need to be re-tensioned after a few minutes of use, but not after every hole.
