My first Project

[KurtPreston]

This was my first scroll saw project about 4 months ago. It wasn't hard but this it what got me hooked

This is really well cut expecially for your first project.

What kind of scroll saw do you have?

Uncle Don

PS: I only did one project and was hooked too.

Thanks Don. I had to do alot of sanding on this one, I figured out after that it was the blades I was using.
Once I started using the Flying Dutchman blades things got much easier.
I have a crapy Mastercraft Scroll saw. I would never recommend a Mastercraft to anyone, but I bought it thinking that I wouldn't use it that much.
Boy was I wrong.

I used a Mastercraft Scroll saw, for a long time. Made some money selling my scrolling, (ie Peoples Names) mad enuff to by a much better saw. BTW good choose on blades

[KurtPreston]

The mastercraft saw died again, I went through 4 saws in 6 months. I am without a saw right now and going through some scroll saw withdrawal symtoms. Looking at the Dewalt DW788.

if the budget is tight, you might consider an old machine like a beaver or delta. i mean really old!!
i have a beaver thats 60 yrs old, bought it on a whim(it was cheap), havent used it yet though

id be interested in how it compares to a modern good quality machine in the hands of an experienced scroller

I picked up a Dremel 1800 yesterday. The guy hardly used it and I got it cheap. Hopefully this will get me through until i can get the Excalibur.
