[Woodcarver] Scroll saw vs. jigsaw

[Joe Dillett]

Hi Pat,

I agree, Ron's work is awesome.

I have no idea what type of bit Ron uses but I like using a 60 or 45 degree lettering bit. I like the taper because it is not likely to chatter like the straight flut bits do. I feel I have much more control.

  ron i never get tired of looking at your work.

   what type of bit do you use in your router? that is really delicate work on those leafs for the piano.

   thanks for the info. i have a plunge router and a lot of bits. but never sure which one to use on the carvings. have never done a carving with the router.

  tho am thinking of it would be easier on my hands then boasting out the old fashioned way.
