Where to buy a good scrollsaw online
« on: April 24, 2013, 03:49:17 am »
Hello!
I?m seriously thinking in changing my scroll saw and get a better one. The one I?m using it was very cheap (brand new for only 50$ lol!), but now I see that I can?t really work with that. The blades are like these http://www.accesorios-carpinteria.com/ftp/img/2011/5462.jpg and the perpendicular knobs of the blade makes me drill very big holes to make internal cuts. And it?s terribly slow and difficult to connect and disconnect the blade!!! Another problem I have, is that there isn?t any kind of vertical mechanical support for the wood I?m cutting. I have to push it down with my left hand, and sometimes the entire wood is pushed up violently by tha saw, and it?s very very dangerous for mi fingers, it?s very difficult to control. Look, it is this one: http://www.lidl-service.com/static/8887062/pic/main.jpeg

So, I think that is the moment of acquiring a better scroll saw. I?m looking for local sellers, but I can?t find scroll saws in the shops here. I think the use of this saws is not extended at all in spain! So... here is the question:

Anybody knows where to buy a good (or at least better!!!) scroll saw online, shipping to spain?!

Thanks a lot!!!!

You may want to go on line to Seyco. Ray sells Excalibur saws and he provides great service!

Hegner is made in Germany and is about the best saw out there but is expensive.
20"Hegner Polymax-3 (2008)
25"Hegner Multimax-3 (1986)

Hey!
sorry for not giving an answer before!!!
Toneman: After reviewing different saws during weeks, I think that Seyco & Excarlibur Ex-21 will be the solution I was looking for!
Jim Finn: Hegner is also a good advice! But I think I finally prefer the excalibur's...
GrayBeard: I can't find them in amazon! In spain it's called "Sierra el?ctrica de marqueter?a", but people here don't use them! I can't find scroll saws in the shops!
Thanks for your support!!!!

I myself have a craftsman from sears and have loved it, does really good, cuts good. I would like to have a more top of line model but just can't seem to spend the hundreds of dollars they want for them, and reading some issues with parts breaking or wearing out has me wondering if its worth it.

Xavi,

I dont know if the ES version of Amazon has them, but I know the US Amazon has the DeWalt DW788 for $459.00 US and DeWalt will knock off another $25.00 until Father's Day. and free shipping.  Hard price to pass up on for me!  ::)

Good luck on the Dream!
