    I have one, but by the time you add freight you may as well buy a new Scroll Saw from Hare & Forbes or Carba Tec.

    I can see you know your stuff. The Delta model is probably the best and most economical saws ever built. If you manage to find one just oil the bearings every 8 hours of use and she will out live you.

    Not sure what you mean with "easy to use" as they're all easy to use. I was referring to in terms of quality and ease of servicing as you can service it yourself due to the process being so simple. There's no way I can service the excalibur and Carba tec charge me $260 to do it.

    They had to take the arm out (not sure the correct name for it) to replace one bearing. Because you can't oil the bearing it wears out, but on the Delta you can and after 10years of having one it never needed replacing even though it had two.
