Any store that sell Hegner in N Florida? No Internet sites please.

I have never seen a Hegner scroll saw for sale in any store, let alone N. Florida. That does not mean they are not sold in stores, I just have never seen one for sale.

Thank you. So how ppl. get the chance to try one before they buy, unless they live near the factory in Germany? I mean is not a cheap item, I know they have good reputation, but what if ppl. do not like it for some reason?

Call Advance Machinery; Advanced Machinery
They might have a show or know someone close to you who has a Hegner.
How about an Excalibur? SEYCO

Here in North America, Hegner saws are sold direct by the distributor. either direct from their online site or at woodworking shows.

I understand wanting to buy from a local source for support and such, but your not going to get that option with Hegner unless you live in New Castle, DE. That is just the way it is. They have been around a long time and have provided solid support, abeit remotely.

Hegner design is simple. Last year I had a critical part break on my Multimax 22V and was able to do the repair myself easily.

You options for local support are not a whole lot greater with other saws. You can find a woodcraft store that will sell you something, but that doesn't mean they have anymore technical expertese on the saw than you do.

Hope you find a satisfactory solution

I bought my first Hegner at a local ( Washington State back then) from a dealer at the local State Fair. The second one I bought was a floor model that had been used at other shows...so contact the Company and ask if they will have dealer at a show in your area soon. You will be able to try it out there

I have never seen any scrollsaw set up in a store for trial. Only at shows. I got to try several different saws at our local wood working show because they were set up by club members. We still do that at our annual show.
Best bet is this forum and see if anyone near you has one and is willing to let you try it.

Thank you all.
I will be driving to Jacksonville in a week probably, and will try to find that Woodcraft store to see the Excalibur machines. I guess it would not hurt to get in touch with Adv. Mach. but I do not know of any show in my area.

Contact Advanced Machinery and see if they can connect you with a Hegner owner in your area.

There is going to be a big woodworking show in Atlanta in August, I'll find the info again and post it here. The Woodcraft store in Jacksonville is a great store, much better than the Orlando store, I almost prefer the 3 hour drive to that store over my local store. I have a 788 so I can't help you out with a Hegner or Ex test drive. What city are you in ocimpean?

[ocimpean]

Thanks for the Atlanta show info, I'll do a search too.
I am located in High Springs, that's a small place near Gainesville.
