Hi, my name is Chris and I live in Logan, UT. I just joined this board in the hope that it is as good as the woodcarving one I belong to. The "old timers" there are great about helping the new guys (like me). I just bought my first scroll saw to help do roughouts for my carvings. But I also hope to do a few other things with it. I bought a real cheap one from Harbor Freight as my first, just to make sure I like using it at all. I've learned my lesson from having bought too many high end tools that end up just sitting.

Reply to Harbor Fraughtby will8989That is the one store I physically get sick as soon as I walk in. The odor of rubber is overwhelming and I’m good for 3 minutes before I have to leave. Sure glad other stores aren’t like that. Hmmm maybe my bank balance would be higher if they were.

Reply to Harbor Fraughtby Bill WilsonI wonder if their effort to offer better quality products may have something to do with it. Seems like they want to market themselves as something more than just a cheap tool supplier. Maybe reducing the number of things eligible for the big discount coupons is part of a campaign to change their image....

Reply to Question about tilting head sawsby Bill WilsonI've owned both tilting table and tilting head saws. My current saw is an EX-21 (pre-Chinese made version) with the tilting head. I have to say that for beveled cuts, I much prefer the EX over my previous tilting table saws (Craftsman and Dewalt). I think a lot of it is the rack & pinion angle...
