mNTERIORSCROLLCUTTING
See Figure 15.
One convenient 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 In=
stalling Blades section previously in this manual.
[] Dd[[ a 1,/4 in. (6 mm) hole in the workpiece.
[] Place the workpiece on the saw table with the ddlled
hole over the access hole in the table.
[] Install the blade through the hole in the workpiece;
adjust the drop foot and blade tension.
[] When finished making the interior scroll cuts, simply
remove the blade from the blade holders as described
in the Installing Blades section, and remove the
workpiece from the saw table.
STACK CUTTING
See Figure 16.
After becoming well acquainted with the saw through
practice and experience, you may wish to try stack cut=
ting. 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 cut=
ting. The wood pieces may be joined together by placing
double=sided tape 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 wil! move on the table as a single piece
of material.
_I1_ WARMNG: To avoid possible serious personal
injury, do not cut more than one loose piece of mate=
rial at a time.
