Dremel MS20 Moto-Saw Scroll Saw, 2-in-1 Compact Table Saw & Fretsaw (70 W) with 1 Attachment and 5 Saw Blades

I needed to cut x120, (2mm x 11mm) notches in 9mm thick OSB and also cut x120 Aluminum (2mm x 11mm) into 20mm long strips Although I could have done it all by using hand tools - it would have taken far too long. I came across this tool thinking it may not be robust enough for the job - but it was on special offer - so why not. The first thing I noticed is the high quality of the build of the main unit - the one thing that lets is down though is the poor quality of the protractor which I gave up using. The table is surprisingly robust and even after completing all the cutting showed little signs of wear. I was able to cut the OSB quickly accurately and straight. The Aluminum was a little trickier but if you use a light oil and let the blade do the work then you can get a straight accurate cut. Changing the blades is easy but switching on / off is awkward. The variable speed works well. Overall a useful tool for doing those fiddly jobs and quite versatile.

This is a really neat, well-made and compact little scroll saw, perfect for small scale craft/hobby applications. Take that both as an endorsement and a caveat; it is a good little machine for 'light craft' purposes but if you are doing anything that could be considered heavier use or DIY type applications, probably best to look elsewhere. Comes with a neat carry case which is always welcome, and feels like it will last a good long time. The cuts it makes are nice and clean and there isn't any 'straying' to speak of, which is mostly down to the fact that the blade position is totally fixed. This is a blessing and a curse because it means that there is no way to set the blade sideways, limiting the length of cut to the depth of the saw's throat. This must surely be added in any future revision of this machine! If you haven't used a scroll saw before, please be patient and do not apply excessive force to push the material through the blade - you should let the speed of the blade do the cutting and concentrate on controlling your movement. There is a variable speed control on the device, however you will need to experiment to understand what the best speed is for each type/thickness of material. One of my favourite features - although it is by no means revolutionary - is the vacuum cleaner nozzle. This may sound terribly uninspiring but particularly if you work in your house you will really appreciate it! Simply attach your vacuum hose to the nozzle and run the vacuum while you work, and every little bit of dust created by cutting will be taken away without floating off into the room. Great! The added benefit of this is that you will be able to see very clearly how your cut is progressing, without having to guess what's going on under a little heap of sawdust. The price isn't astronomical, however I do feel there is a definite uplift in cost that is only made possible by the Dremel 'brand halo', such is the level of trust the brand commands. However I can't knock the company for profiting from an excellent reputation - and in a way it would be sad if they couldn't - so no star knocked off for that! A great piece of kit, but more at home in your house than your workshop, if that makes sense!

This is a nice scroll saw that has about 27cm run. Works smooth with plywood and you need some patience with solid wood which it does handle quite easily though. I am not sure why they put the parallel guide rails along the blade and not perpendicular - this way I do not quite see a way to adjust the amount of the 'parallel' part I can cut - this does make it relatively hard to follow a straight line...

I've never used a scroll saw before but I wanted to try my hand at a Gnome I'd seen online selling for a lot of money. Thinking to myself I could make my own my hubby bought me the scroll and off I went. The saw is super easy to use. You just need a steady hand. Some of the reviews say you can't cut a straight line but I absolutely had to issues with that. (I regularly use a sewing machine so perhaps that helps). I used MDF boards and the saw had to problems cutting them. 3mm and 9mm I've done so far. It is a struggle to fit the blades if the machine doesnt stop with the bottom part in the right place. I just turn it on and off again to sort this issue. There are no doubt better scroll blades out there. But for an absolute beginner like me. I can highly recommend.

Good item

Fine size for diy workshop

I have always used a hand fret saw for modelmaking but decided to step up to an electric scroll saw. I had no experience of them so read reviews on various saws without really knowing what I wanted. This machine seemed ideal and did not cost the earth. I have been using it regularly for over a month and have learned a lot more about scroll saws in general and the limitations and foibles of the Dremel Moto Saw. I have realised that I am not happy with the pin type blades because they are usually wider than the hole needed to get the blade and pin into the workpiece, which is often bigger than the intricate pieces needing to be cut out. So I am unable to work on really intricate work. The table does not tilt, which is something I knew about before purchase, but as I progressed I realised a tilting table would allow me to use different techniques with a wider range of uses. Changing the blade itself is not easy. The lower clamp must be in the upper position or it is virtually impossible to fit the blade into the top clamp, often having to stop/start the saw to get the clamp into the right position. Dremel blades are substantially more expensive than other makes. No blower or light. The table should be ok for those who want nothing more than a basic scroll saw and should realise that really intricate work cannot be done. I am reasonably happy with it, but am disappointed that I now need to buy another, more expensive one, if I wish to carry out intricate work. Once one has a scroll saw, it is almost impossible not to want to do intricate work. You get what you pay for. DGD

Vi en Amazon, y en videos de Yotub como funcionaba y uno de mis aficiones es la marquetería la veo fácil de manejar y con algunas herramientas hechas por uno mismo se la puede sacar mucho provecho. La forma de entrega fue estupenda y me encuentro plenamente satisfecho
