Popular Post Fedido Posted April 14, 2020 Popular Post Report Share Posted April 14, 2020 Village, I embarked on a journey last Oct when my neighbor gave me a 1990 13 inch Craftsman Scroll Saw. With your guidance and encouragement, I will mark this day with my first project ( Bottom) and the Jimi Hendrix (top) I just finished. Thank you for all the help and mentoring. jollyred, barb.j.enders, Woodrush and 11 others 14 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rjR Posted April 14, 2020 Report Share Posted April 14, 2020 Neat projects. I still have my first scrollsaw-- a little longer ego than yours though. I bought it new in the fall of 1953--yes it still works. No I do not use it much. It is very limited on the blade stroke and cutting ability; as it does not have any rotating parts of any kind! As the blade moves less than 1/6 inch it is the safest power tool in the shop. It started life as an 11 inch throat-- the best welder I ever knew lengthened it for me sometime in the early 1970's.

I got one of those for Christmas as a kid. My mother loved it as much as I did. Fedido 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That is amazing! I would hold onto it too just because it is a part of how we made it to where we are now. The wife must be getting bored because she has come out to the garage while I am cutting. I expect her to try something in the next couple of days. Edited April 14, 2020 by Fedido amazingkevin 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
