Welcome to the village David.!.....Glad to have you aboard....If you have not already done so , Look at the Scroll Saw Review section of the forum, it list most every saw out there and tells you just about anything you need to know.....A lot of folks here use the DW788 and or the EX21 among others......Good luck with the saw purchase.
Todd , What agreat job you did on that Dearing pattern !!.....I have the pattern but have not gotten the courage or time to do it yet....nice work and for a good cause !
