Default Are scroll saws safe for youth?

They make hand powered versions called "coping saws." They even use the
same type of blade. They're more work and if you get a bad one you'll
hate it, but I like mine. :-)


Coping saws are coping saws. The hand equivelent of a scroll saw is a fret
saw. I have both scroll and fret saws. For some reason, I prefer doing it by
hand.
