INTRODUCTION TO SCROLL SAWS A scroll saw is a versatile tool essential for intricate and precise cutting tasks. Designed with a fine, narrow blade, it excels at creating detailed patterns and curves in various materials, including wood, metal, and plastic. Unlike other saws, the scroll saw features a blade that can pivot, allowing for greater flexibility and control when making tight turns and complex designs. Its ability to perform internal cuts makes it indispensable for detailed woodworking projects, crafting, and hobbies where accuracy is key.
KEY FEATURES OF SCROLL SAWS • Variable Speed Control: Adjust the speed to match the material being cut. • Tilting Table: Allows for angled cuts, perfect for beveling or decorative designs. • Throat Size: Determines the size of the workpiece you can cut; generally between 12" to 30". • Dust Blower: Keeps your cutting line clear for better visibility and precision.
ADVANTAGES OF USING A SCROLL SAW • Precision and Control: Allows for meticulous designs, curves, and internal cuts that are not possible with other saws. • Safe for Detailed Work: Safer for intricate work compared to jigsaws or band saws due to its smaller blade. • Versatility: Works with a variety of blades designed for different materials and cut types.
HOW TO CHOOSE THE RIGHT SCROLL SAW • Throat Capacity: This refers to the distance between the blade and the back of the saw. • Variable Speed Control: Look for a scroll saw with adjustable speed settings to handle different materials and cutting tasks. • Blade Change Mechanism: Opt for a saw with an easy-to-use blade change system. • Table Size and Tilting: Consider the size and adjustability of the table. A larger, tiltable table allows for more flexibility in cutting angles and handling larger pieces.
