"Scroll saw, really really nice very useful tool for cutting curves. I'm Robert Markey and I've been a carpenter for a long time and we're going to talk about how to use a scroll saw.

This is a pretty average size blade, with blade it'll cut pretty good, a pretty good curve. O.k., you can get much thinner than that, you can use a narrower blade. It makes a lot of noise, put your earphones on, make sure this is clamped. And there it is. As long as this is securely clamped and your curve is not too small for your blade, we're good. I'm Robert Markey and we've been talking about using a scroll saw."
