hello everyone, a couple of weeks ago I joined this forum, and one of the first things I posted was a topic asking for help on buying a scroll saw. I would like to thank everyone that replied, I was completely taken aback by the amount of responses. every one of them helped me in my decision. I ended up going with the delta, and boy am I in heaven! Saw came in on Wednesday after being ordered the past Thursday, everything was fine nothing was broken and she runs like a beauty. I could go on and on about all the great things, but I wont. The first pattern i cut out has two eagle heads, I used a #3 blade and backed it with bubinga (probably too fancy). I'll put my old saw next to the new one for comparison. You'll be seeing a lot more posts from me!
