Convert to Pinless

[boysie39]

This is an old saw that was given to me its in perfect working order hardly used circa 1993 .it uses pin blades can it be converted .

Not sure if the photos I hope to download will be much help ,but we will see .It is a lovely saw and as I know nothing about scroll saws I hope you can help.

When I say converted I mean so it can use straight blades.

Hi Eugene,
Do you think that something like this could do the trick - might need a little adjustment (cutting a bit off the arms of your saw perhaps). It is on this site= http://www.timbecon.com.au/products/scr ... 330_0.aspx (not sure if they send to Europe, maybe worth a try if interested)>
