Amazon.com Review
When it comes to cutting intricate curves, DeWalt's 20-inch scroll saw delivers precision operation quietly and easily. In fact, everything about the saw is designed for convenience. The on/off switch and speed control, as well as the flexible dust-blowing arm, sit on the upper portion of the front arm, inches away from where you're working, so you don't have to reach around the tool to make adjustments. The wide, teardrop-shaped cast-iron table provides plenty of support for materials and bevels 45 degrees each way, great for tackling tricky inlays and shadow boxes. DeWalt placed the pivot points right up front, rather than in the back, which seems to reduce blade vibration. As with many DeWalt saws, this scroll saw doesn't require tools to change the cutting blades, which means it takes you less time and effort to make those drop-in cuts. I--Justin Paul/I

My second Dewalt scroll saw, Wore out the first one, plan on having first one overhauled but didn't want to have the saw in the shop during this time. I have A Hagner scroll saw but I like the Dewalt better. I also purchased the arm lift from www.jimdandy.com. It really helps with a lot of inside cuts.DEWALT DW788 1.3 Amp 20-Inch Variable Speed Scroll Saw

I use 2 of these at a middle school woodshop. We have had nothing but problems with them. Now before you think it is because of the hours of use, let me explain. When they are running, they are only on for two hours 4 days a week. Within the first 2 weeks, they both died. The repair shop took their time (3 months) to fix and then they broke again a month later. Back to the shop and 4 more months! Both circuit boards went out and the linkage get very sloppy. I just had another circuit board go out this week. I wish I could replace these, any ideas?
