Mick Posted September 9, 2011 Report Posted September 9, 2011 My name is Mick. Retired mail carrier. Started scrolling 19 years ago when I retired. Started with a 20" VS Delta saw that I needed a special tool to change blades. I used that saw for 11 years. I then looked long and hard at both the Dewalt 788 and the Delta P-20. I chose the P-20 because of the clamping system. The 788 seemed to have a lot of back and forth motion. I can adjust most of that out of the P-20. I have used it a lot and have had no problems with it. Too bad they quit making them, I suppose parts will become a problem. I have made several clocks and cut mostly portraits, cars and scenic pictures. I am a top feeder. Married 56 years, 5 children, 10 grandchildren and 9 great grandchildren. Born and still live in Janesville, WI Mick Quote
