G0537 Scroll Saw -17-
Bevel cuts can be used for miters, cope joints,
and making relief or recessed projects.
To make a bevel cut:
1. Draw your pattern as described in the previ-
ous sections.
2. Adjust the table to the desired angle.
3. Using the same principles as in the previous
sections, feed the work slowly and evenly
into the blade, remembering not to force the
workpiece (Figure 15).

Inside cuts such as circles or the insides of closed
letters can be easily cut with your scroll saw by
threading the blade through a hole drilled in the
workpiece.
To make an inside cut:
1. Disconnect the machine from the power
source.
2. Remove blade and throat plate.
3. Drill a hole in the waste portion of the work-
piece that is large enough for the pins to fit
through.
4. Thread the blade through the hole in the
workpiece as shown in Figure 14.

4. Wait until all motion has stopped before
removing waste near the blade.

and tension it.
6. Make the inside cut and go back to step 1 for
the next inside cut.
