Craftsman 5" Scroll Saw (21609) —
I have been using scroll saws for many years and this one is excellent. I own a rbindustry Hawk which is a larger and much more expensive saw that gets very little use now. Originally I purchased the Craftsman scroll saw to use in my basement when the weather was too cold to work in my shop. Since I have been using the Craftsman scroll saw (about two years), the Hawk sits in the corner of the shop collecting dust. With the Craftsman scroll saw, changing the blades and varying the speed is much quicker and easier than with the Hawk. Adjusting the tenison of the blade is a snap. When proper tenison is set, it's just a matter of flipping the lever for accurate tension after replacing the same type of blade. The blower is easily adjusted to the right position to keep dust off the cutting line, and it stays put. One thing I would like to see is a brighter light on the saw and a way to increase the blower velocity! The only use the Hawk gets is on larger and thicker pieces of wood. I highly recommend this saw to anyone, even for the most experienced wood worker!Craftsman 5" Scroll Saw (21609)
