BLULOU

I went to the hardware store and bought a fuse and now I’m back scrolling thanks everyone for their interest and feedback. The fuse looked good but it just goes to show never assume.

Thanks everyone, I taped the contacts to the switch and still no power. I’ll buy fuses and see what happens.

I tried the screwdriver for the armature and that didn’t work and also used a portable heater by the machine and still no go thanks for your advice. I’d hate to take it in for service.

My 788 won’t start today. I haven’t used it for a couple of months. I checked the fuse it’s ok the brushes ok , ran air in the switch and checked the foot switch ok there as well. Any suggestions?

Welcome Fran, i’m from the outskirts of northeast philly.

I just picked up a scrollnado myself and it works well connected to my festool midi. A little noisy going threw those small tubes on the scrollnado but I wear earplugs if too much noise.

Got the same saying on a teeshirt

Back in fine form, got my scrollsaw back. I’m in scrolling ecstasty

Welcome Jason , i’m new here as well. A lot of knowledgeable scrollers here!

Hi snowwolfe, I just joined myself,seems like a nice bunch of people on this site!

Bought the saw in November 2017 and had it repaired in August. Shop told me parts loosened up and needed several bearings. I guess it’s ok for light duty. Never cut wood more then 3/4 inch. Since I got repaired it has been working so well that my rating is five stars. The authorized repair shop was a hardware store in the area near where I live. Awesome repair and came back in perfect shape. Hopefully it remains in great shape for years to come, just keeping my fingers crossed.

Thank you all, I live on the outskirts of Philadelphia

Hi, everyone i’m Lou, just joined the village. I’ve been scrolling for about fifteen years. Bought a new dewalt 788 last November, unfortunately in the shop for making a racket in the back end of saw. I also play guitar and a little mandolin. Been retired for close to two years and loving it.
