Hi from North Wales, have a look on facebook etc and see if you can find a Aldi scroll saw for sale, they were cheap BUT are made by Scheppach and worth double what aldi sold them for i have a second hand one and works a treat for me, i did start with a B and Q one which was stuck in the shed for years couldnt get the hang of it but once i learned about blades and such it works fine but the aldi one has a speed control which helps, the clarke brand are probably made in the same factory by the look of them, UK machine supplies store, Machine Mart just thinking as you mentioned Clarke? hope it helps Misty
