This scroll saw is being replaced by the VS one. I looked up pricing on
this model on froogle.com and plenty of places were selling it for $119. I
was thinking about buying one of those speed controls that they sell for
routers and see if it works for the scroll saw as well as other shop
equipment. It's a heavy little saw, lot's of iron, comes with a small blade
that I tried out on 1" pine without braking the blade.

I've cut 1" maple and walnut with no problems at all. It will definitely
cut.
