Scroll saw restoration

i have some rust like that on the surface of my jointer.. wd40 and steel wool will eliminate that?

Good deal.. It cleaned up nice…

EricW; I used the WD40 and steel wool to get most of the rust off, then I used a wire brush, that really did the job of shinning things up. It’s a small wire brush I put in my drill driver and that worked great.

I have the same model scroll saw. It’s worked well for me for 5 years now.

that looks like new, using talc (baby powder) on metal tops helps to repel moisture, as does wax also.

It looks good. I use rubbing compound on a scott brite pad with my random orbital sander and then floor wax.

Great buy and the table clean up real nice.

Doug, Nice buy and good work with the rust. WD40 and steel wool can clean even severe cases of rust.

-- Brian, Lebanon PA, If you aren’t having fun doing it, find something else to do.

Well done! Now you can make one of these :

(Haven’t posted as a completed project because I still need to paint the wooden balls and the shade is on order).

A lot of our Turrent mills and Lathes etc are prone to rust spotting…......we just use 240 and 600 Wet-Dry paper on a O/Sander with very light oil….......brings it back like new real quick.

-- I will just keep doing it till I get it right.

Nice find!!! Does it use pin-less blades?

-- Only the Shadow knows....................

That’s the scroll saw we have. Quite a steal at $45!

-- You're a unique and special person, just like everyone else.

John Gray, it will use both pin and pin-less. I’ve never used a scroll saw, so I’m just finding out what blades to use for what, should be fun.

I just bought one of these as well, does yours vibrate? mine vibrates like crazy and I cant figure out why… everything is bolted down tight….
Good deal $45, I thought mine was cheap $90!

The one I have (exact same model) vibrates quite a bit on the faster settings too so I keep it turned down fairly slow most of the time. At least now I know it’s not just mine.

I had the same problem with my saw wd40 steel wool to remove rust and to keep it rust free coat the table with car wax wipe well
