Abstract
Abstract: A scroll saw is a small electric or pedal-operated saw used to cut intricate curves in wood, metal, or other materials. The fineness of its blade allows it to cut more delicately than a power jigsaw, and more easily than a hand coping saw or fretsaw. Like those tools, it is capable of creating curves with edges, by pivoting its table. The scroll saw's name derives from its traditional use in making scrollwork, sculptural ornaments which prominently featured scroll-head designs A bevel scale is located under the saw table as a convenient guide for setting the approximate saw table angle for bevel cutting. When greater precision is required, make practice cuts on scrap material and adjust the saw table as necessary. When cutting at an angle, the drop foot should also be tilted so that it is parallel to the saw table and rests flat against the work piece. To tilt the drop foot when making a bevel scroll saw cut, loosen the Phillips screw, tilt drop foot to the proper angle and then retighten screw.Blade tension knob: Check tension by the sound the blade makes when plucked like a guitar string. This method of adding tension to the blade can be developed with practice and requires knowing a better understanding of your particular scroll saw. Be careful not to adjust blade too tight.
