Hi
I could not resist making an offer on that 24 inches Delta Scroll Saw and a few hours later it was in the trunk of my car. I re-assembled it this morning and turned it on, runs like a well oiled machine . I however never used one so any tips on speed (it’s a single speed) blades adjustments is welcome as I am looking at buying some blades.
cheers

I have the same unit, $85! I checked the oil, thought it was old, replaced it with full synthetic 0-20. Flushed it several times with the new oil until it was kinda clean. I think there is a missing part in the top blade holder, not easy to change. Just used it today. W/R to blade speed, there are pulley systems that fit the saw but I just stay on one speed. Just used it this am.
Thank you, it has oil but I will also change it, it says SAE-10, While removing the lower guide that sits on top of the moving tube, I found a lot of broken blades inside the tube so I cleaned it , must have found 10 of them. Paid $100 CAD , it’s a steal for such a nice heavy unit for me.
Yea, for sure, good unit. I will post a picture soon as I think mine has some original parts like the light and blade guard. And yes, it is heavy.
