    Thanks!

    My basis of comparison is a Craftsman that liked to grab the wood and slap it repeatedly against the base plate while energetically walking itself off the table. So glad to not have that anymore.

    In a pinch I use an (uncalibrated) phone Ap called Decibel X. Any dB measurement is also super sensitive to distance from the noise source.

    Which scroll saw model did you measure at 14dBa? Agreed on all the tuning to reduce vibration. Some background: I'm a mechanical engineer, which is why I love data. We're slowly replacing all our tools and appliances with quieter ones, in part to make them safer for kids (and adults). We just switched our dust collection to a Harvey gyroair, which is (for some settings) quieter than our prior cyclonic system. I wear hearing protection pretty much all the time in the shop, even when hand carving.

    I'm looking to get a new scroll saw (to replace a 1980's Craftsman). We've been replacing all our equipment with quieter systems, so I want to get something on the quieter side. I'm looking at the Seyco, Pegas, and Dewalt...and maybe Excalibur. Is there any data out there for dB level for these? Any owners want to use a phone noise level app and let me know what the approximate dB level is on your machine while cutting? Thanks!
