Title: New JET Scroll saw
Post by: Judy Hunter on September 04, 2016, 08:14:12 pm
As most of you probably know, my son and I do three big shows a year. We live 100 miles apart but "work together".  We have both used the DeWalt 788.  As he put it, he got a "wild hair" and bought the New JET scroll saw. So far he really likes it even though it has some things that will take getting used to.   I am like the old cow that has to have her own stall, so I will go play with his saw once in a while then may take the plunge myself.  Any one else get "a wild hair " yet??

Hey Judy, unfortunately the new Jet saw is not top feed friendly, and I am a top feeder!

Hi Judy
I still use the Excalibur as it is the only half decent saw you can buy down under
, I'm on my second one as the first gave me no end of trouble, this one has been going 3 years and has been trouble free so far
