Hi, great to hear from you. The quick release clamp can be purchased directly from Hegner. You need to have a Hegner scroll saw for it to work. Thanks for supporting our KZfaq channel. All the very best from us all.

It is often available on Ebay second hand for between £250-500. A new Hegner Multicut 2s can cost between £800-1200.

Niqua Speed number 9 reverse tooth blade.

Hi Keith, I work with Niqua blades. My favourites are the Niqua Speed number 9 reverse tooth blade or the Niqua Pebecco number 9 reverse tooth blade.

@DailovespoonsThomas that's great thank you, it's such a mine field with the blades .

@keithmoore9205 it can be difficult to get hold of good blades. Try a variety and find what suits you best.

Hi Mark, hope all is well with you. All the very best from us all. 👍

It's from La Mancha in central Spain.

We use Fiddes shellac sanding sealer.

Shellac sanding sealer is the finish we use.

It depends on the machine but some can be converted to take pinless blades

We finish our wooden items using three coats of Shellac sanding sealer. Thanks again, all the best from us all.

Search online for companies like Niqua, Pegas and Flying Dutchman. I work with a reverse tooth number 9 blade. The best for me are the Niqua Pebecco number 9 reverse tooth blade or the Niqua Speed number 9 reverse tooth blade. Pegas do their own version too.

On the Hegner you just released the blade and pick the piece up that you are working on. Simple and it does the job. It helps if you are using pinless blades too.

@@DailovespoonsThomas yes I think I’m a bit worried of breaking the blade by bending it but I see you do that anyway it’s just a matter of getting a bit more confident and practice

@davidgreenwood5241 if it's a good blade it will be fine. I use the Niqua Speed or Niqua Pebecco number 9 reverse tooth blade. It does a great job working in hard wood. Pegas do their own version too. Give yourself time. As you said its a matter of building up your confidence. Enjoy the process, it's a lovely machine to work with and you can use it to make so many different things. 👍

@@DailovespoonsThomas thank you for your reply I’ve only recently found your website I will be looking up more of it in the future I’m sure I can learn a great deal from it

Hi Marty, hope all is well with you. All the best from us all. 👍

Hi Frank, never added colour to the shellac. We leave the wood a natural colour. All the very best from us all. 👍

Thanks Les, if memory serves I believe I just used a basic word programme. Something like libre office.

Hello 👋

Hi Regina, a few possible causes for that come to mind. Firstly, a blade that is not suitable for the job. I recommend a Niqua Speed or Niqua Pebecco number 9 reverse tooth blade for working in hard wood. In the USA it might be easier to get the reverse tooth number 9 blade by flying Dutchman. It's basically the same blade. The other possibility is the quality of the blade you are using. If tension is correct and the machine is set up correctly it is likely to be a blade that is of poor quality or just not suitable for the task in hand. The type and thickness of the wood are other possibilities. The speed you feed the wood through the scroll saw is another possibility. Bit of trial and error involved in getting that one right though.

Adjust the tension rod so the blade comes to the top of the blade holder.

Delighted to hear that you enjoyed the video. Hope you enjoy making the wagon, the design is available on our website for free www.thelovespoonworkshop.com/scroll-saw-projects Thanks for supporting our KZfaq channel, all the very best from us all. 👍

Thanks for supporting our KZfaq channel. Hope you enjoy making the 3d projects. All the very best from us all. 👍

Thank you, we use Fiddes shellac sanding sealer.

Thanks for the support. I would start with a second hand Hegner scroll saw. You can often find them for good prices on Ebay. Customer support is good with them too, you can easily get hold of spare parts. Thanks again, all the very best from us all. 👍

Depends the type of wood and the individual piece of wood too. Have working in beautiful pieces of dark and light wood. Have one sculpture in teak that has great character in it. I have another sculpture in Oak that is also full of character.

If it helps you do it that way. It works fine using this method though.

Hi Joe, Hope all is well with you and always great to hear from you. The gouges we use are predominantly a number 3 or 4 sweep. That's on the UK listing system, so one number higher than the European system. So in Europe they would be numbers 2 and 3. Don't use any straight chisels just gouges with a very shallow sweep. I used to use straight chisel before I had the shallow sweep gouges. Thanks as always for your support, all the very best from us all. 👍

Thanks Dai. Hope all is well with you all as well.

@joeeads6958 all good thanks Joe. Busy as always

Hi Mark, hope all is well with you. It's the same here, always seem to be busy with something. Thanks as always for your support, all the best from us all. 👍

Hi Ken, hope all is well with you. All the very best from us all. 👍

Thank you. 👍

Absolutely, that's how we used to do it before we had the scroll saw. 👍

We use dust masks and dust extractors.

@@DailovespoonsThomas OK thank you. Is there a dust extractor that you would recommend? I don't have a garage and so I have to scroll all in my home in my office.

@koscherness most of our dust extractors are quite large so probably not suited to a home office space. We do have one smaller trend dust extractor that can be attached to the scroll saw itself and does a great job too. So my recommendation would be to check out the Trend dust extractors.

@@DailovespoonsThomas ok thank you!

Lovespoons are often decorative so not meant for practical use but there are no rules or regulations when it comes to the tradition. You will see many examples of lovespoons that are cooking utensils too.

It's done a great job for the last fifty years for our business but use whatever you are happy with for your own work.

Thank you.

Happy Easter, hope you enjoy the livestream. All the very best from us all. 👍
