Default scroll saw

I am thinking of buying a scroll saw. What would any of you
recommend, as far as best quality/low price.
I know there are high priced saws, but I want to stay within
my meager budget.

Thanks,
Smitty

G'day Smitty,
I started with a Ryobi About $100.00 Au Good value for money but had to
spend anther few bob on pinless blade clamps. The Allen key used to
change blades was a pain.
Next came a Delta variable speed, roughly $250.00 Au. The tooless blade
clamps and variable speed was like stepping into another world after the
Ryobi.
Now I have Dewalt 20" variable speed, Near enough to $800.00 Au. but
worth every penny.
Not just another world but another dimension.

Hope this gives you a bit of hand out.

Regards
John
