Where to buy good Scroll Saw in South Africa
Skil Phil replied to Srdjan's topic in General Scroll Sawing
Coming in a bit late but go to Hardware Center in I think Bree Street. They have Hegner and some others. Phil -
Thanks all for the comments. Bill I sent you mail on another forum. I changed the height to suit my chair and the top to suit the saw. It is wide in the front but I can get in close. It also collects the dust that the vacuum doesn't get and the dust doesn't end up on the floor. For anybody else interested this is the link http://1nailbender.tripod.com/Lazy%20Man%20Bench.pdf Cheers Phil

Made a stand for my Hegner. After searching came across an article from Michael Martin. Thanks Michael (if you ever read this) The top is adjustable so as to vary the angle. Sturdy and practically no vibration. Also attached are the first 2 cutouts. The internal corners are not good so need a lot more practice. One is for grandson's bedroom door.

Thanks to all for the wishes. Plonked it on the bench this morning and cut out a simple puzzle. So smoooth. Not at all like the Delta 24" I gave up on a few years ago. Now placed on an old cabinet so I can sit - better on the back. Will start on a dedicated stand tomorrow. Documentation is great. Nice to be able to read meaningful instructions. Phil

He dropped this off. Tomorrow will set it up. Phil

Thanks all for the welcomes. Phil

A few years but only very basic stuff - mainly due to saw capabilities. Hope to improve with the new saw. Phil

Hi, Phil here. I join Les and Martyn and maybe some more from SA Live in a small place called Rosetta in KZN with a view of cows and mountains Have been using an old 24" Delta for a while but blade tension and other accuracy problems made me have a break. Waiting on a Hegner to be delivered. They arrived in the country today so I maybe lucky with a delivery early next week. Pricey (and the exchange rate makes it worse) but better than the other Eastern stuff available. Phil

Thank you. That was very helpful. Was wondering how to do it. Phil
