Rainman Posted June 20, 2012 Report Share Posted June 20, 2012 My Family bought me a new Shop Fox 16" variable speed scroll saw after my Delta went puff. I read some reviews and for the price it looks terrific. My problem is that is uses as a standard, a pinned blade. There is an attachment for a straight blade, which I prefer to get into the small detail work, but the attachment is awful and I am having a terrible time with it. The pinned blades are easy to change and work with for bigger holes, but I like to do some work with holes too small to fit the pins back through. Has anyone used the Shop Fox and found an easy way to manage using straight pins? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Travis Posted June 21, 2012 Report Share Posted June 21, 2012 You could try a different conversion kit. I know someone posted a link to a kit that converts pinned to straight blades. I can't seem to find it, though. I did find a few threads that might help, though: viewtopic.php?f=2&t=1506&p=9022&hilit=kit#p8727 viewtopic.php?f=2&t=6682&p=35066&hilit=kit#p35066 viewtopic.php?f=2&t=5582&p=28988&hilit=kit#p28988 viewtopic.php?f=2&t=3137&p=17462&hilit=kit#p17462 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
