That reviewer needed a band saw for their project not a scroll saw.When I ordered this saw off of Amazon, I used the free shipping option, and expected it to take the advertised week+ from Georgia (I think was the location). Cutting the Pinewood Derby car blank was like cutting butter.
Add a light for visibility and a blower or vac to keep things clean and it is first rate.Several years ago I worked with a friend using his "brand new budget priced" saw, I recall it was very hard to make clean cuts even with new blades. Dremel lives up to it's legacy for nice precise products.This saw works great especially with sharp blades.
When the saw arrived I made several test cuts on rough 2x4 material, until I knew I could cut nice clean lines. Could of been the wood or that the blades he had were not meant for that wood.
I paid a little more for this saw but it is now 10 years later, Couldn't be more pleased with it.Purchased it to cut a pine wood derby car. I could of paid more but don't think I would of gotten a better saw for my purposes.Before ordering it I read a bad review for this same saw on another site.
Boy was I shocked to check the Tracking number and find that it was already on truck for delivery to my house 2 days after ordering.Personally my only Complaint is not having enough time in the shop to use it.
This is a great tool. Bought it for $129 at H.D.Contrary to negative reviews, it is smooth, reliable and solid. I have had it for a year, with heavy use, no problems.
said it was the eccentric which makes the arm go up and down. It simply self-destructs. I have sent my Dremel scroll saw back for repairs for the second time--same problem both times. Anyhow, Never again will I buy a Dremel produce. All of a sudden it makes a loud hammering sound for no apparent reason. The tech. Although they repair the things free it is still not worth the hassle and expense of sending it back (two times at $24.00 a pop my expense. I will sell this one and buy something that will work.
It cuts well, but the drop foot is very annoying. It never stays in place when you cut small pieces. Other than that, it's an okay saw.
The product was exactly as stated.and almost like new. The delivery was fast and packaged well. Thanks.
