Mid level scroll saw - suggestions??
Hi everyone I posted this last night in the scroll saw forum area but nobody has responded, so I hope it is ok to post here
My name is Christine and I am have been wanting to find something creative to do for a while when I discovered scroll saws. I would love to learn how to use one to help with some other ideas I have for craft projects.
My preference is to get one for a beginner, but that has the capacity for me to 'grow into it' rather than outgrow it. I would appreciate recommendations based on best bang for buck (such as where it may be affordable where bought second hand) and best value new purchase in cheaper models. Are there places besides gumtree/ebay/quicksales to look for second-hand saws?
Also what are the KEY features to look out for? I have read that many prefer quick change and/or pinless blades and variable speeds. How important is tilt angle at this stage? Also what models tend to be cheapest to buy parts or 'accessories' for?
My apologies if this was recently addressed, I am very new here and tried a few searches and looking though forums and saw older info only and not specific to this question. I hope in time I will be able to find things easier and keep up with posts
