Tree Reaper Posted July 3, 2013 Report Posted July 3, 2013 The spiral blade is for cutting a radius in tight places, I don't see a purpose for them in cutting leather and I agree that they would most likely tear the leather up worse than a conventional blade. Quote
Members Sturme Posted July 4, 2013 Members Report Posted July 4, 2013 I am tempted to try this one out http://www.micromark.com/microlux-mini-scroll-saw-for-hobby-use,7114.html They have blades for it up to 40 tpi. It might work for some of the detail work I want to do. And them sand the edges. Quote
Members Spence Posted July 4, 2013 Members Report Posted July 4, 2013 My thought is to try it on filigree. Maybe some curves, as the need arises. I think $5 or so for the spiral blade is easy to swallow. Quote Spence Mendoza, TX, USA
Members Slow Learner Posted July 4, 2013 Members Report Posted July 4, 2013 My saw has an attachment much like a pressure foot it is just too high. If an extention could be made I would think that the foot holding down the leather and a 40 or 48 tpi blade should do the trick. I'm going to work on that. Quote
