Looking for advice on old Lightburn Bench Jig Saw Blades n such
I have an older bench Jig saw,, I would like to use it as a scroll saw if I can find blades to suit. It currently has a Jigsaw blade that works but isn't much use as is. I stopped by my local Bunnings with not much hope of finding anything and well wasn't disappointed in that expectation. Anyone who can provide any information it would be greatly appreciated.

I doubt you will find blades to fit those mount you will need to fabricate new mounts to suit

You can get a scroll saw conversion kit that allows a scroll saw designed for pinned blades to use painless blades. They also hold pinned blades. Not sure of the size of your machine but you could probably adapt it.

Does yours have variable speed?

Thank you
This just might be the ticket. I will still need to do some modding but I think this will work
