After years of cutting stuff on a Ferm, and only a few weeks of absorbing the reading on this forum, I've splashed out and bought a Sip scrollsaw.
Mainly because I was sick of the blade-changing chore on the Ferm. It's so long, it puts you off doing anything with inside cuts.
But the Sip is so different...click, click, plonk, click, click. Done. (and probably faster than it took me to type that line...)
The "plonk" is the wood with the hole going onto the blade.
And it's so QUIET! At the lower speeds, anyway. Even at top speed, it's still quieter than the Ferm.
So I'm giving my old scrollsaw to a friend who has a workshop full of power tools, but no scrollsaw....(heh,heh,heh)
Lookout-you intricate, complicated, highly detailed fretwork-here I come!
