Description of DELTA SS250 Shopmaster 16-Inch Scroll Saw
This entry-level scroll saw from Delta has only the bells and whistles that the home hobbyist really needs. It's a cut above their SS200 model, differing mostly in that it offers variable speed and the Quickset II blade-changing system, both handy features. The cast iron, round table--measuring 11-3/4 inches in diameter--will tilt to 45 degrees to let you cut bevels. When you're done, a positive stop brings the table back accurately perpendicular to your blade. If you're looking to do some interior scrolling, this saw is a great choice at a good price. Its Quickset blade-changing system allows you to drill your pilot hole, snap open the Quickset chuck, run the blade easily through your pilot hole, and seat it back in the Quickset chuck--a snap, and you're cutting. Blade tensioning is accomplished with a fingertip control, extending your blade life and preventing snapped blades. The nifty built-in blower keeps your cut line clear. The saw has onboard blade storage, as well as a pretty generous 16-inch throat capacity (the distance from the blade to the inside back of the saw). You can buy a stand for it or mount it on your workbench; either way, predrilled holes in the tool base will make that job a breeze. --Kris Jensen- Van HesteTools and Hardware Reviews of DELTA SS250 Shopmaster 16-Inch Scroll Saw
Customer Review: The Delta SS250 Everything A Pro Needs
Summary: 5 Stars
A little over two years ago I bought a Delta SS250 Variable Speed Scroll Saw to replaced my old Dewalt 20 inch Variable Speed Scroll Saw after the motor burned for the second time in only two years of service. I have been using my SS250 for over two years now with no problems. Some of the other saw I have use have a table that pivots both right and left, this is the one draw back with the SS250, it only pivots to the left. However, this has not been a problem for me and the work that I do. If you don't need a saw bigger the 16 inches, there is no need to buy a more expensive saw. The SS250 is a very well made saw and is unsurpassed in quality, and if you don't need a table that tilts both left and right, you can't do any better with any saw on the market. There's nothing you can't do with this saw that you can do with any other, no matter how much you pay, and the SS250 is more powerful and built better then most I have used, including my old 20 inch Dewalt Scroll Saw that I paid almost $400.00 for. I'm not saying that the SS250 is the best 16 inch saw on the market, I'm saying it's as good as any saw on the market, and it's built like a tank! I do wish the variable speed dial and power switch was in the front of the saw, but this no big deal.
I would recommend the Delta SS250 to anyone looking for a 16 inch variable speed scroll saw that's well built and has a powerfull heavyduty motor, and will stand up to extensive uses over long periods of time. The variable speed range is as wide as any 16 inch saw on the market, you can work with both hard and soft woods and metals, or just about any other material. Also with the SS250 there's very little vibration, making it a great saw for fret work also.
