Same as the Dewalt 788 except the upper arm can lock in the up position while re positioning your work piece and feeding the blade through. Not free shipping! You can buy it at home depot for $399

This is an excellent scroll saw for the money. Love the variable spped control and articulating sawdust blower and LED lighting. Solid Cast Iron construction (heavy) Highly recommended..

Complete Junk
Rating: 1
Complete junk. Arrived today via FedEx. Opened the box to find that the manual inside was for a band saw. Took the styrofoam out to find a loose nut in the bag with the saw. Took to the shop to mount to my workbench. Tried to install a better blade than what comes with it and the blade holder snapped in half. I packed it up and returned it to the store. Had this piece of crap in my possession for less than 2 hours. Very disappointed with the quality of this saw, I guess you really do get what you pay for. I have owned a Dremel scroll saw for over 20 years, the brushes went out on it and this was to replace it. I'll have to keep shopping. If you're looking for a quality affordable scroll saw this isn't it, avoid this saw.

The machine is a piece of crap and it is not worth to buy it. I replaced 4 blades! The lower blade holder broke! I am not very happy with it. NOT worth to buy!
