Hello,
Looking to buy a scroll saw. I read the archives and most of you from a few
years back until present purchased Dewalt's model. How do you like it now?
Does it still do all you want it to, and run mostly problem free?
The reason I ask is, I read in the archives about switch and board
problems, some knocking and a few other odd goings on.
The price ranges are very odd to me, with most models being at one end or
the other. So I am curious how middle of the road is doing as that is
usually the best choice for many. Thanks for your time.

I have used mine since late 1998, and it's been great. Highly
recommended. It was helped by the crazy prices that HD were flogging
them off for at that time (about $250 IIRC)
Usual BS about not being connected to DeWalt, etc, In fact I'm
anyones' tool whore. Cheapest, with quality, always wins.

WW'sWarehouse has the saw, stand and light for $399 now.

I recently Bought a Dewalt , I have never been ino scrolling but thought I
would get one to piddle around with,
Looked at everything on the market and probably for what i will do with it
would have been happy with the Dremel
189.99 at HD, but i also stayed in the middle of the Road and went with the
Dewalt
Can't even hear it run, for what little I have used it it lives up to its
Hype.
Best Price in town, Amazon, 419.95 for the saw, stand and light, I didn't
mind waiting and went with free freight
If you want just the saw they sell it for 399.00 which is the best price
around.
Good Luck,
George

It is my understanding that Dewalt has recently changed manufacturers of their
scroll saw and the new version is not so great.
I have a 4 year old copy and love it.
We've been selling them since their inception, and its my belief that DeWalt
changed the manufacturer for the STAND not the saw. There have been multiple
different versions of the stand: sheet metal, tubing, tubing and sheet
together, etc.
