It was Dewalt or the Delta scroll saw and Delta won out their both excellent scroll saw and they both the same design but as for price Delta beats Dewalt. I run smooth and excellent quality. You can't go wrong with Delta.I highly recommend it.

Have only used it about 3 times, too cold in my garage still, but am impressed with the ease that it took to use it for the very first time in my life. Granted I researched scroll saws for a good 3 weeks before I decided to choose this one so I felt like I could jump right in. I forgot I needed to learn more about tension, speed, and types of blades to use!If you buy this, and I recommend it over others for price/value, do read about how the instructions do not include how to put the whole thing together. Assembling the table to the bracket was not as straightforward as I thought and took some noodling to do. Once together I am looking forward to lots of great gifts for grandkids and maybe to sell as well!

The product arrived on time. I have used it and it performs well and is quiet when running. Before purchase while doing my research, I learned that the product does not come with blades but I was pleasantly surprised to find two in my packaging.

THE TABLE ASSEMBLY IS POORLY DESIGNED, ONLY 1 SMALL PIN ON BACKSIDE TO HOLD IN PLACE. IF YOU GET A DUST BUILDUP IN FRONT AREA IT IS HARD TO MOVE ON ANGLE. IF I WAS ABLE TO VIEW THIS IN PERSON I WOULD NOT HAVE PURCHASED THIS UNIT. VERY CHEAPLY DESIGNED NOT WORTH THE MONEY.

This rating is based on a comparison of an earleir DeWalt model of that I have used since 2001., 508 (20")The newer Delta model has much less speed, and much less energy. It does not have the . I have used dewalt easily on 3/4 inch cheerry going slowly, but working very well. My major use is cutting puzzles, 5ply, quarter inch, baltic birch, using very fine blade. this will give me about four hundred to five hundred pieces, usiing the DeWalt machine at a reasonable speed. But certainly not the Delta.

Some Small Issues
First of all I only had a Craftsman 21”saw to compare this to. The first was a piece of garbage. Getting parts was a joke. Loud and vibrated like a bulldozer. This is a nice saw. Very quite and smooth cutting. But there were a couple issues with it. One, the booklet that was very small and short, read all you have to do is set the table, wrong. There was a part on the bottom that had to be put on. There was a picture to apply it. Also you have to put on the hold down no problem. Then the mitter gauge has to be put on no major problem but no direction to help. And for some reason I can’t get my table tight to stay square. Also the stand came a few days latter directions there are a joke. All I all I do like the saw even with the slowdowns.

It was harder to put together that I thought it would be. It is really quiet and easy to change blades and the price was great. There was no warranty card in the box though.

Have only had it for a few weeks, but this saw is really smooth. I waxed the table and made a dust collector by cutting a plastic container and attaching it to the bottom with super magnets. I live in a condo, and planned to use it on the balcony, but its pretty quiet so I use it in the kitchen. The blower works good, it's easy to change blades, and the table is big. It feels heavy and solid. It was the least expensive saw that I should be happy with for many years.
