All the Tools You Need to Succeed
When it comes to scrolling one of the first things that comes to mind is what to buy. Whether it is to purchase your first scroll saw or to upgrade to a better one then there are certain factors that you need to consider.
Blade holders The first thing that you will need to consider is the capabilities of the blade holders and changers. The saw should basically have the ability to accept standard 5” blades. Scroll work cannot be done with a saw that does not have pinned blades. Pinned blades carry a lot of advantages while at the same time they have their disadvantages. Their disadvantage being they cannot cut through small details since you have to drill a very big hole to get the blade pins through. |
Convenience
Scroll saws come with a lot of convenience in that it is very easy to change the blades. Some of the scroll saws have hundreds of holes which means you have to remove each and every blade from the holder and then remount the holder. The modern scroll saw has brought about convenience that has made the process relatively easy. The arm of the saw can be raised as it holds its position together in its most desirable place making the process much easier. Variable speed The greatest advantage with scroll saws is that they have a variable speed. This gives you the convenience of slowing down the blades if you want to cut slower for instance, if you want to prevent the blade from burning the edges of the wood. Most of the scroll saws require belt changing to change the speeds. Other factors that you will need to consider include vibration, size specifications, and depth of the throat among many more.
