    Default help with old ezycut scrollsaw

    found an old ezycut saw at a garage sale last weekend for a huge $10 & have a few questions for my scroll betters .

    #1 Is this a good useable scrollsaw , I've never used one before but it looks good to me.
    #2 would this be a good unit for cutting patterns in 6mm - 12mm red gum.
    #3 as you can see it needs a motor I've got a 1/4 HP 960rpm elect motor under the bench would this work on the saw or do i need something smaller.

    thanks for your time.

    #1 yes
    #2 yes
    #3 yes though I think maybe some way to vary the speed would be good. As a beginner the quickest way to lose interest is if it goes too fast and you're unable to control the cut. They don't need a lot of grunt as the blade needs to do the cutting so maybe try a sewing macine moter and use the foot pedal to adjust the speed?

    thanks for the help I happen to have an old singer knocking around so it looks like I've got some work to do, once I'm finished I'll post some pic's.
