Thanks Tony, I'm just doing one at a time. I timed it the other day and it takes me 15 minutes to cut one and I'm good with that since I'm not as gifted with cutting the way y'all are, but I will get there some day.

WOW...that is beautiful!!!

Some day I hope to be able to do some of the beautiful work you all do, but for now, here is what I'm doing with my new saw. I have been making LSU & N. O. Saints yard signs for the past few years. Since LSU just won championship, I have a order for 10 signs. Here is my work in progress.

Wow Kevin, I hope at some point I can do something like that. Really awesome.

Thanks for the video and the information, I will be able to do this maintenance, I fix so many thing myself from watching YouTube videos.

Ray, I had to go look, it says on the motor type 1, hope that the better one but for the price and condition, I could not pass up. It's has barely been used. A woman bought it thinking she would like learning but lost interest very quickly. She had what looks to be about 30+ blades, the stand to go with it and a foot pedal. She just wanted it out of her way in the garage. I really want to thank you for all your help.

Hello Guys, Just wanted to drop a line thanking you for all the help and advice you gave me last month on purchasing a scroll saw. I found one this past weekend; it's a used but in excellent condition, DeWalt DW788. I was able to talk them down to $125 from $300. I have been using it the last 2 days and it purrs like a kitten, so much better than the very old craftsman I was using. All of your advice helped me go into this purchase with complete confidence. Thanks Again, Cheryl

Good Morning, got back in town the other day and started my search again. Instantly found a really nice saw, Jet JWSS-18 Variable-Speed Scroll Saw w/ Stand, any advice on this brand? Seller only used a few times, asking $500, I offered $300 and he agreed on that price. Thanks for any suggestion.
-
I really believe you are right, Ray. I see others often so I will just keep an eye out. I am working out of a little oversized garage which is already full with all the tools. I'm also wandering if she is just trying to hike up the price, she has been sending me messages for over a week wanting me to come get it, when I commit, price goes up. Thanks again for all you help and advice, I do now know what I'm looking for with confidence.

Seller sent me a message earlier saying someone offered her $450 for the saw. Guess it was not meant to be.
-
Yay, today is the day I may get my new toy. Seller did send me a message last night that the saw is still for sale and wanted to know if I was still interested in it. She will contact me today on a time for me to go see it. Thanks to you guys, I feel very confident that I can make a good decision to purchase or not. I will let you know what happens and then probably start bugging y'all for tips on using it, since it is way bigger than I'm use too. Can't thank you enough for giving me the confidence to make this happen, hopefully!!!!

I drive a Tahoe that I can put all the seats down flat to the drivers and passenger seats but I will bring some wrenches just incase. I also arranged for my oldest son to come with me and the sellers husband will be there according to her, my son and I will remove at home. Tomorrow afternoon can't get here fast enough, you guys have me excited about this saw. Bad part is, I'm flying out Saturday afternoon to visit my sister in Georgia for a week, I'll bet I'm up real late in the garage Friday night playing.

I don't know of anyone that does scroll work but I feel pretty confident now on what to look at and how to test. She is only about 5 miles from my house but she is not available until Friday between her job and the kids playing ball. Just called my son to arrange for him to come with me to help put in my SUV if I purchase it. I'm excited and want to go now but can't and it's bumming me out. I have been talking with her, about it, for over a week now and she has never mentions any others interested in it, in fact, she keeps sending me messages asking if I am still interested in buying. Hopefully, no one else will beat me to it. You guys are awesome!!!! So glad I found this group.

Just finished watching a totally understand now what you were referring to. Spoke with the owner a little while ago and set up a appointment for Friday afternoon to go check it out and hopefully purchase. She tells me they don't have blades, this was her fathers who has passed away, she knows very little about it. What would you suggest to bring with me to use on 3/4" scrape plywood I will be bringing to test with? I'm very excited now that I have spoken to you, was feeling lost before on buying or not. Also, I did fill out the profile information.

I really appreciate both of your help on what I am to look for. I am recently retired and want to get more into this hobby I enjoy. I hope I can handle this monster, I did tackled the table saw, miter saw, router plus more so I'm sure I can do it. May be asking for your expertise in the future on tips to use. Thanks again, Cheryl....The Cajun Grandma

Thank you so much for the information on what to look for.

Looking for help. I have been using my dad's very old craftsman scroll saw to make garden signs. It has burned up to the point of no repair. There is someone in my area selling a RBI Hawk 226 VS for $350. He does not know the age of the saw so I called and emailed the company with no reply. The serial # is 13614, would anybody know if this is worth the purchase, he claims it runs well. Pictures look like it is in very good condition but since I don't know much about purchasing tools I was looking for help. Thanks, Cheryl
