Fanatastic Scroll Saw

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!

Bought this MS20-01 Moto Saw and love it. Just the right size for me and my crafts. Able to move this saw around to various locations, which makes it excellent.

Dremel moto tool
Rating: 5
I absolutely love it. One thing I especially like is it cuts on the downstroke. My scroll saw cuts on the up stroke, which means the wood wants to lift up and I have to constantly hold it down. I dont have that problem with the moto saw. I make miniature furniture for doll houses, and it's perfect for that. I also make jewelry, and it cuts thin metal too. An all around great little tool. Oh yea, it's portable too. Another great feature. Wish I would've had it years ago.

Great for dollhouse furniture and miniatures
Rating: 5
I love this thing. It's not overwhelming, although I admit, buying a contraption like a saw freaked me out at first, but this thing works so well and is easy/non-scary to use especially if you are not used to using mechanical things like this. It works really well to make dollhouse furniture and also is good for fret work (like for a victorian). One of the best parts is the work space under the saw--plenty big when you are working on miniature furniture. Also good for other craft work. Love how it clamps on most any table. Very cool addition to my dollhouse work tools.

Compact, light weight. Self tensioning blade holder. Perfect for wood modelers! Not so good for standard sized projects.

Very useful tool for small work projects
Rating: 4
Very useful tool for small work projects but the amount of vibration is overwhelming. The use of a rubber base does help diminish the vibration.

Great little saw
Rating: 4
Recently purchased after years of drooling at it, love that it clamps to any table, love that it can become a portable coping saw, the functionality is pretty good, with an obvious learning curve. The caring case and storage is super, and its pretty quiet unless you have it on an unstable table or your trying to push it harder than it can go. The unit is pretty stiff out of the box and takes some breaking in, the guide foot was super stiff, i actually though i was doing something wronge at first. As with most people i was irritated that i had to get the miter seperalty, purchased a genuine dremel part number, from a seperate site, it only fits in one side of my table. I do feel like this tool could be so much more, and like its a dremel Cinderella. With only 4 blade types, and not a whole lot of availability for them right now , it could use some accessories like, and adapter to make it pin less, some guides, skip blades, diamond round blade. I had to by Olson blades, cause these currently are sold out like every where. All in all its a good saw for small spaces, its works well, ive broken more blades because the pins were twisted than anything else.

Where's the fence and miter gauge ??
Rating: 4
Hello, I just bought your product and it's great, but where can I find the fence and miter gauge? Also, a note in the manual explaining how to identify the blades would be usefull. Thanks.

Needs to have the parallel guide attachment
Rating: 3
I received this saw for Christmas. I spent all day building a doll closet for my daughter. The saw works beautifully. I can cut at any angle and move the wood around as I need to. My only complaint is that it does not come with the parallel guide attachment that would make cutting straight easier. It comes with the saw in Europe models, but unavailable in the U.S. I would rather have that then the vacuum attachment. At least make it available to purchase Dremel....
