The Shopsmith Scroll Saw is one of the safest and easiest-to-use of all stationary power tools -- and that's what makes it your best choice for introducing adults and children alike to "The Joys of Woodworking".
 
It's delicate enough to saw thin veneers or inlays, intricate fretwork or mother-of-pearl -- yet powerful enough to slice through brass, bone, plastics and hard or soft woods up to a full 2" thick with ease and safety.
 
Its special Blade Blocks hold all 5", plain end Fretsaw or Jigsaw Blades from 1/4" wide down to super-fine Blades for making extremely intricate cuts. And, where old style Jigsaws only powered their Blades on the down stroke (making smooth cuts in thick wood almost impossible), Scroll Saws power their Blades on both the down (cutting) and up (return) stroke.

This constant tension action delivers far more positive control over the cut and helps prevent premature blade breakage. And, with a little practice, your cuts will be so smooth you won't have to do any sanding at all!

What you'll do with your new Shopsmith Scroll Saw
Create One-Of-A-Kind Craft Projects - From puzzles to jewelry, to signs to intricate fretwork projects, the Scroll Saw is the saw of choice for crafts people. It will tackle all types of materials and make super-fine, super-smooth cuts in all of them.

Perform Tasks That Are Difficult For Other Saws - Other saws can't match the performance of a Scroll Saw for jobs like:

  • Making intricate, internal piercing cuts in veneer-thin to 2" thick woods - plus - metals, plastics, rubber and other materials.
  • Creating small, hand-cut-looking dovetails, corner-lap, mortise-and-tenon and similar joints.
  • Cutting out super-small projects or components that are either too small or too dangerous to handle on other sawing machinery.
  • Coping the inside corners of "off-angle"moldings that may otherwise be difficult to fit.

Have Some Great Woodworking Fun! - The most frequently reported problem with Scroll Saws is that they're so versatile and so much fun to use that they can often become addictive. You'll love it!
 
Loaded with work-saving, results-enhancing benefits and accessories
 
As with all Shopsmith Special Purpose Tools, your Scroll Saw offers great features and accessories to help you make everything you make - better.

MARK V - Mount or Free-Standing - Every Shopsmith Special Purpose Tool offers you the option of mounting and powering it with your MARK V - or on a motorized Stand.

Parallel arm action - Blade moves forward on down stroke, back on the up stroke to clear sawdust and help you achieve perfect 90° turns and corners every time. (Upper Arm is totally enclosed for safety).

Huge 16" x  23-1/2" Table - Provides more than enough support (plus a full 20" of throat depth) for your largest projects. Tilts to 45° in both directions on direct-reading Quadrant and locks solidly with a simple twist of a knob.

Fast, 30-second, tool-less Blade attachment - A quick, quarter-turn of the Blade-locking Thumb-Nuts is all it takes. No tools, and no fumbling required.

Time-saving dual Blade tensioning controls - Rear, flip-up Lever provides primary tensioning during Blade changes while up-front Release allows rapid tensioning when removing and re-inserting blades through cut-outs during internal piercing cuts.

Clear, See-Through Upper Guard - Lets light in, then flips up and out of your way for quick, tool-free Blade changes.

Hold-Down with Dust Blower - Provides vertical Blade guarding with a single Knob height adjustment and a built-in Blower to keep your cutting line free of dust and debris at all times.

Heavy, Zinc Alloy Base - Dampens vibrations for super-smooth running.
