Clayton717 Posted December 26, 2011 Report Posted December 26, 2011 I did it finally. I bought my new scroll saw . I decided on the Dewalt, I used one at our local woodworkers guild and like the way it operated. I just got the saw no light or stand. Now I ust have to wait till it gets here, supposed to be thursday. This was my Christmas present to myself, I sold enough of my crafts this season(plus been saving for a while) to pay for it. Travis I ordered through Amazon and clicked the link here so hopefully you get a little something from it. Quote

Travis Posted December 26, 2011 Report Posted December 26, 2011 Congrats, Clayton! That's an awesome Christmas present for yourself. Its nice when your hobby can buy you some new tools. Quote
Travis Posted December 27, 2011 Report Posted December 27, 2011 ...Travis I ordered through Amazon and clicked the link here so hopefully you get a little something from it. Thanks, Clayton. It looks like I got credit for the purchase. That's awesome. That really helps me offset the costs of running SSV. I appreciate it. Have fun playing with the new saw! I look forward to seeing your first project on the new saw. Quote
wombatie Posted December 28, 2011 Report Posted December 28, 2011 You will love the DeWalt I've had mine about 6 years and I still love it. Marg Quote
Clayton717 Posted December 29, 2011 Author Report Posted December 29, 2011 got the saw yesterday. and got it mounted to my bench. I didn't have a chance to use it much, just trimmed a couple pieces for an intarsia project I was finishing up. So far it works great, big difference from my old Dremel. much quieter. the only thing I 'll have to really get used to is the blade changing, everything is on the right side, and my dremel was on the left. Which worked well for me considering I'm left handed. It will get used alot soon, I have 2 more intarsia's I have to get done in the next couple of weeks. Quote
toolbeltman Posted December 31, 2011 Report Posted December 31, 2011 Clayton...I think you can change the blade clamps to the other side....just take the set screw out and the blade clamp out then switch sides...check it out...might be easier for you to change blades....I'm just going from memory here....hope it helps.
