INTERIOR SCROLL CUTTING (Fig. 15)
• One feature of a scroll saw is that it can be used to make
scroll cuts on the interior of a workpiece without breaking
or cutting through the edge or perimeter of the board.
• To make interior cuts in the workpiece, remove the scroll
saw blade as explained in the section on blade removal
and installation on page 16-17.
• Drill a 1/4 in. (6 mm) hole in the workpiece.
• Place the workpiece on the work table with the drilled hole
over the access hole in the table.
• Install blade through the hole in the workpiece; adjust the
drop foot and blade tension.
• When
nished making the interior scroll cuts, simply
remove the blade from the blade holders as described in
the section on blade removal and installation, pages 16-17,
and remove the workpiece from the work table.
STACK CUTTING (Fig. 16)
After becoming well acquainted with your saw through
practice and experience, you may wish to try stack cutting.
Stack cutting may be used when several identical shapes
need to be cut. Several pieces of wood may be stacked on
top and secured to each other before cutting. The wood
pieces (A) may be joined together by placing double sided
tape (B) between each piece or by wrapping masking tape
around the corners or ends of the stacked wood. You must
attach the stacked pieces of wood to each other so they
will move on the table as a single piece of material.
WARNING:
To avoid possible, serious personal
injury, do not cut more than one loose piece of material at
a time.
WARNING:
Do not allow familiarity with your saw
to make you careless. Remember that a careless fraction
of a second is suf cient to in ict severe injury.
