I retired from teaching industrial arts 2 years ago. My last year they brought back woodworking and construction classes. I think they decided that college was not for everyone. I still have former students tell me how much they loved woodworking. Some students still drop by for advice on projects. So maybe the pendulum is starting to swing back where college is not the only alternative.

I just got my 40-694 a couple of days ago. It appears they listen to negatives my air hose was attached and the saw runs smooth. As far as parts I checked their web site and parts are available also ereplacement has parts.

I use got my new Delta 40-694. It took about an hour to assemble the saw and the stand. The instructions for the stand was missing, I got instructions for a zero clearance throat plate instead. Initial thoughts easy to setup and it runs really smooth. My son is really excited because it so much better than the old scroll saw. I made a light with a magnetic base for it for around $18.00. Once I have used it awhile I will review it.

I just got the Delta 40-694 and stand yesterday. Saw runs great quiet and smooth. The stand went together easy even without instructions, I got instructions for a zero clearance throat plate instead. The saw itself was real easy to put together. Two bolts on the table and I was done because I don't use the blade guard. The air hose was connected unlike earlier versions. Price for the saw and stand $359 for saw and $74 for the stand. The saw is the Dewalt wrapped in a different case.

I got a Delta 40-560 a few months ago and my boys really got into scrolling. I just ordered an upgrade a 40-694 because they will enjoy using a better saw as much as me. Hope to do some great projects this year with the father son shop time.
