I would get the free AVG anti-virus software.  Its works great and its free. I've been using it for years now.  Why paid when you can get it for free. I'm not doing a plug for the AVG I just think it is the best that is out there.

enjoy.

Hey Cyber,  try putting an anti fatigue mat under it.  There should be vertually no vibration.  If it is a vibration because of the floor, a rubberized mat should stop it.

I put rubber washer under the scroll saw where it bolt down to the stand and that help with the vibration.  I could also try to get a think rubber mat down.  I also lower the speed down it seems to cut down the vibration and i'm using a olson number 3 rev blade and at lower speed it seems to stay shaper  when cutting bb-plywood.

Judy they do have a ex-16 scroll saw its cheaper then the ex-21.

I think there other tools places around here that sell scroll saw other then acme tools of the north.
I know home depot does and northern tools.

That is where I got my dewlat from is home depot.  I rather got a type 1 dewalt scroll saw.

So far I am really happy with the Delta. No vibration.  I did chat with Ray at Seyco, and he assures me that the Ex will out preform the Delta or DeWalt. Guess I will wait and go to a show where I can "play" with it.  
Glad you got yours back.  

Your welcome to play with mine anytime  

The vibration is mostly gone but all scroll saw have some vibration to it. but it is better then when it was new.
and the EX-21 is built like a tank.   The dewalt and the delta only last about 2 to 3 years at the most. then it would be time to get a new one.

I have got my EX-21 fix.  There i was nothing wrong with the inside of the scroll saw but there was a few loose bolts on the front of the saw where you can turn the saw from side to side. So now it runs like it was new but still has some vibration to it maybe cause i'm on a wooden floor.

HAVE A MERRY CHRISTMAS AND A HAPPY NEW YEAR  

and check out   www.northpole.com and track where i'm going on the 12/24/2011....
ho ho ho.... and a good night.

Keefie, add weight to the stand. That helps against vibration. The weight should be as near to the saw as possible. I have like 75kg of pave stones in my stand (~160lbs).

Show a photo of your stand with the pave stones......

General Scroll Saw Talk / Re: Any real advantage in an expensive saw

« on: December 12, 2011, 12:08:53 am »

i'm thinking about getting my money  back for my ex-21 scroll saw.  I took in to get fix but they have not got around to it they told me that acmetools is backup 3 weeks.  If they don't get it fix this time i'm going to take it back and ask for my money or a new saw this is BS.   



My dewalt is going to H*** on me. 

If this ex-21 is not fix this time around i'm just going to ask for my money or a new say if it not fix i'm just going to come back and delete my account on here.
