Unboxing The Best Scroll Saw On The Market! Axminster Professional Scroll Saw! 

Hi John, yes It's a shame old or cheap tools can put people off them, and most people end up thinking it's not the tool for them. But this scroll saw is very intuitive and I don't think anyone would regret the purchase. I'm glad I showed you this tool and you enjoyed the video... if you do decide to take to plunge, I'd appreciate it if you used my affiliate link! Many thanks!

Hopefully I inspire you in upcoming videos! Thanks for watching mate!

Thank you Markus, that's very kind I appreciate you respect my opinion. I'm looking forward to seeing what I make on it!

Thank you so much! I appreciate that

Thanks for watching Dave, Yeah that blade change is a game changer. Well worth the money in my opinion!

@@SeanEvelegh definitely one worth saving up for

Hey mate, Thank you for the video idea! I've been thinking about a blade video for a while for multiple machines! Cheers for the suggestion. If you could use my affiliate link, that would be fantastic!

Hey, I was using ash, Its a really nice work to work with. But tbh for scroll saw work, most thin materials work well. If my opinion, if you did take the plunge you wouldn't regret the purchase. If you buy cheaper, you would likely upgrade later on, but you'd get better results with a high quality machine. Hope that helps!

Thanks Sean. I tend to agree that buying the best quality that you can afford is always the best way to go. Nearly £900 is a stretch though as it's not for a business and is just a hobby. The entry level Axminster is only £139. I need to sleep on it lol, decisions decisions.🤣

Yes. Most all tool dealers (Amazon too) sell an aftermarket footswitch. You plug the pedal into the AC receptacle, and plug the saw's power cable into the pedal. Flip the saw's power switch on. When you step on the pedal, the saw runs. These pedals are inexpensive.

Yeah, they're both very good saws

I think Axminster might ship to the US

Oh thanks mate I forgot, I've added the video promotion sticker to the video

Ignore the spelling

Hey Bertie, oh yeah I remember the ones at school. I'm sure they can buy one in the next upgrade. You should pitch it to Mr Norman.

Around 800 pounds

Yeah, about $1500 here in Oz.

PEGAS is the inventor/manufacturer of this type of scroll saw....Swiss made, in Vallorbe.

@@umbertoorsini5210 I think you'll find it's Excalibur that's the source. The Canadian company that made it, in Canada, folded, It was only after that, that a Taiwan company took over production. They started producing it for a number of brands (including Pegas) each brand with their own little tweaks but for the most part the original design. Pegas did come out with their blade clamps which is a highly recommended upgrade if your branded version of the saw does not already come with them. The Axminster does. I up graded my previous saw branded by Carbatec, an Australian company, with the Pegas clamps, the difference was chalk and cheese. The list of brands is growing. The original (Excalibur) made in Canada is no longer, and the brands now, with the same base design if you like, all come out of the same Taiwanese factory. Some of these new brands are Axminster, Pegas, Carbatec, JET, King, Seyco, WEN, and probably more I have missed or are yet to hop on the band wagon. I'm just nervous about what happens if/when China invades Taiwan.
