I never comment on videos, but after watching 1000's of explainer videos, I want you to know I found yours one of the best. Simple, to the point, great shots and explanations. Thumbs up and Subscribed. Thank you.
Thank you for uploading this. I just received my WEN 3921 and had to call them for the pin that allows the adapter to hang on. Apparently, someone else needed it worse than I did. Smh. Thank you for clarifying video
I really want to get a scroll saw. Videos like this are great for learning about the saw before I get one. I had no idea there were two types of blades. Now I do. Thanks!
Thank you, thank you. Just purchased a Wen saw. It came with a bag of blade holders. So confused, you explained this so clearly and now I clearly understand what I am looking at.
Wonderful. I've just purchased a scroll saw ... GIANTZ brand. I don't know how this brand shapes up but I'm working to a budget. Your video was a huge help. I've been making wooden lures for a few years now and have done all the shaping with Stanley knife and dremel. Really looking forward to using the saw. Have subscribed. Thank you.
In order to accommodate the pin in the pin end blade, those blades will be wider. These are easy to install, but you can make as fine of cuts with them. The pinless blades are better for making small interior cuts.
Is this the same for the 3921? How are blade changes if you need to put the blade through a drilled hole in the workpiece to cut out a shape from inside, e.g. a circle? That's my only concern with the Wen since the arm doesn't pivot open.
Yes, I think it is the same. I believe the 3920 is the older version of the 3921. Switching out pinless blades is a pretty clunky process. I came up with a tip to make it easier and smoother to facilitate what you are describing. If you are interested, then you can watch this video: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-R-IyvGjKkuU.html WEN has also come up with adaptors that I think will work on both the 3920 and 3921 you can install to make pinless blade changes easier. I have purchased them, but not yet tried them.

Hi James. Finally cut out my first couple of lure shapes. Two blades came with the saw, a pinned and a plain. The attachments for using the plain blade are the same as yours. However when using the plain blade there is severe vibration. Not so with the pinned blade. I tension them equally. Any thoughts. Thanks. Warren.
Good news about your lures! Can't say I get more vibration with one blade type than the other. I do get a fair amount of vibration with both types, but I chalk that up to it being an entry level saw.
