User questions & answers

Question:	How long are these blades, will they fit a delta scroll saw
Answer:	8.5 x 3.5 x 1 in . Almost all blades fit almost all scroll saws.
Question:	Will these blades fit in an 18” porter cable scroll saw
Answer:	Some porter cable saws accept both plain and pin end blades. Without knowing the model # I cannot say for sure, but I am guessing it will.
Question:	Will these fit the Dewalt DW788 scroll saw
Answer:	These are 5" plain end blades so they will fit .
Question:	Are these pinned end blades
Answer:	No they are not pinned.
Question:	Does this saw come with a stand
Answer:	NO! Even though Delta and DeWalt are very similar, The DeWalt stand has to be adapted to fit the Delta saw. Takes a few minutes.
Question:	What is the 'thing' on left side? How easy to change blade, need a tool? Disappointed no light, any available
Answer:	That black tube thing on the left is an adjustable hose that blows puffs of air (generated I think from the up and down motion of the upper arm) which will help keep your lines clear of sawdust. Changing blades is a snap, simply loosen the thumb / wing screw on the top arm and the lower holder and slide out the blade. As for the light, I make due with a shop lamp that I have hanging from the ceiling of my garage. You can check woodcraft or rockler for magnetic portable lamps that may stick to the saw somewhere - not sure if its magnetic everywhere, never tried
Question:	The saw is great but I can not get the hold down to stay in place. I move the wood and it also moves. Any thoughts
Answer:	I removed mine even though it held just fine as I found that it got in my way. This was after I'd gotten used to the saw and the forces involved. I haven't had an issue using it without the hold down, but you have to do the holding down.
Question:	There's such a price difference, what's the main difference between this saw and the dewalt dw
Answer:	Only difference is some of the outside sheet metal, the inner workings are the same. You are paying for the Dewalt name. They both used to owned by the same company.

Product features

Skip Tooth Blades Scroll Saw Blades can cut many materials

Skip tooth blades cut fast, provide good

chip clearance, and smooth finishes.

Great for tight radius fretwork!

For Cutting Metal

Traditional Skip Tooth Scroll Saw Blades seem to out perform the traditional “metal cutting” or

“jeweler’s piercing” scroll saw blades in cutting metal. Any Skip Tooth blade up through a

Universal No. 5 is good, but Universal Nos. 3/0 to 2 are preferred for inside cuts and cutting

marquetry panels.

These blade sizes can be used for cutting cold rolled steel, copper, brass, aluminum sheet and

bronze. Generally, a piece of soft metal up to 1/8″ thick can be cut quite easily, whether a single

sheet of stock or several thinner sheets in a stack cut.

Question:	What is the length of these blades
Answer:	5" in length
Question:	Will these fit the Dremel MS20-01 Moto-Saw Variable Speed Compact Scroll Saw Kit
Answer:	Added October 3, 2016 I recently acquired a Dremel Moto Saw and can confirm that these blades will NOT fit. The Moto Saws require a short pinned blade. I believe they are sold as 2-3/4" or 3" blades and they are specifically labled for the Moto Saw. They are hard to find. Amazon does carry them however.Previous Answer: I am not specifically familiar with the individual models of Dremel Moto-Saws. However, I used a Dremel Moto-Saw in the 80's and 90's and my recollection is that it required pin-end blades. These blades will fit ANY scroll saw that uses pinless blades, but I suspect that you will need pinned blades for your saw.I was
