i am considering getting a scrollsaw


how are scrollsaws with cutting thick material say 1.5-4 inches thick


I don't think the stroke on a scroll saw will let the teeth clear with
stock 1/2" or thicker.





maybe need a more agressive blade but how do scrollsaws in general
perform with thicker stock

i just realized i have not seen any videos cutting thick stock
