Buying a scrollsaw

I dont know about the Excaliber but I have had a few different saws and I love my Dewalt! I have heard the Hawk is a really good one.

Excaliber has a nice anniversary addition out that looks sweet. I have not seen one in person but have heard positive comments about the new Excaliber’s…

Good luck with your decision.

Hi Mike, is the Ecalibur 21” good for production work since I make things and sell them at markets

The Excalibur is the finest scrollsaw on the market. I have a 31” model which is basically the same as the 21”. I bought 2 or 3 years ago and I love it. No other scroll saw has all it’s great features. Check out all the positive comments on the scrollsaw forum Here

I have not used the Excalibur but it seems to be a really nice one. It has a lot of nice features. This lady uses one and has a great web sight for patterns and videos www.sheilalandrydesigns.com you might try calling her she was really helpful for me when I called her about a pattern.

Go with the Excalibur. It has the dual link parallel arm action that reduces vibration. It’s a great saw.

I just picked up a DW788 On Craigslist for $400 with stand and light. It has never been used. You can find many of these on CL and if you are patient you will find a decent machine. Lots of junk brands but the good machines will pop up.

How much do you want to spend vs how much you will use it? The Excalibur is probably the best on the market. I really like my Dewalt 788. Worth every dime I spent on it. Got it on sale with the free stand and a little work light. The saw and stand are great, the light is so-so, and I use a magnifying circular articulating arm light instead. Old eyes at work again!

I did a review of my Excalibur 21” saw here on lumberjocks. You might look at it. I came from the PS Wood saw and while that’s a very nice saw for the price point, it simply can’t compare to the Excalibur.

I had a Hitachi for two years and cussed it every day! Now I have a 20” RBI Hawk boy what a difference! Made in the USA. I love it!
