thanks for the information
it was for my proposed Blandford build but I have tried to build a frame from bits of wood I had lying about and I think that my scroll saw techniques are not up to scratch
Anyone want to buy a Proxxon scroll saw band saw and bench saw ?????????

I think takes time to practice with a scroll saw,use some blank pieces to cut different shapes until your cutting skill gets better,lots of videos on you tube.

You also need an oscillating spindle sander to smoothen up the inside curves of the frame pieces,the actual cutting never going to be perfect.

Thanks for the replies
Practice practice practice

Just practice on scrap wood until your cutting getting better.
