Nice job, I like the work that you have put into this project. You are definitely an inspiration to the scroll saw community, thank you for your time and effort making your ideals and finished project available to us. Now I have new ideals for my own set up thanks to you. Have A Great Day.

Got Question: Underneath the table where the blade is attached, by chance is that hooked up to cam attachment to the motor? if so, it just might be dirty and need to be cleaned, sort of like the chuck on drill press. Just wondering.??

Well, if nothing else you spike the curiosity in my soul, do you know when or where this was manufactured? I see the trade make is from General Electric Company England but that's all I can identify. Back in the early 50's Craftsman made a magnetic scroll saw that worked on vibration. I wonder...

Go with the aftermarket, that way you can pick up a splitter and hook up the shop vac to go on and off at the same time with the scroll saw. Have A Great Day.

Without, seeing the arm assembly and just putting in my two cents worth of advice, by what you are describing is either a tension problem or a locked upper arm bearing. I would just be systematic and go through the saw carefully cleaning and lubricating searching out worn-out or broken parts...

I bought an old Hegner multicut-3 back in February, it has a single speed motor on it. Just as Jaco stated, get a variety of scrap wood and blades and just start cutting. Start with simple patterns and lettering, before you know it, you'll be cutting like a pro. Have a Good Day.

Thank you Jaco, It is good to see what other people are using for stands and there scroll saw setups. Have A Great Day.

Yes, I bought this old scroll saw back in February, I added a quick release tension rod and blade clamp, this scroll saw works like a champ. This old Hegner multicut-3 is becoming my go to saw first, and my Delta is slowly being used as back up (OR) if I am in need of slower speeds because of...

Thank you

Thank you, for your comments. It would seem to me that I can go either way or maybe a mix of both. I am not much of a scientist or physics, but after reviewing several comments and suggestions' I feel quite comfortable in building a solid bench for both saws to sit on. Thank you and Have A Great...

Just wondering if it would be best to use factory designed stand with the scroll saw, or build your own stand, or just bolt the scroll saw to the work bench. I myself have one with factory stand, and the other is one that I built on a fly just so that it had a place to sit in the shop. Now that...

If you are planning to use the shed for both storage and a workshop, I would be thinking large as possibly, because soon as soon as you start putting things in there you will be looking for room for both storage your shop. Your choice, Have A Great Day.

Did you ever resolve you dust collection problem? If you did, I would like to know what you used, or are using. I'm planning to upgrade and or change mine to something a bit better. Just surfing around and getting ideals together. Have A Great Day.

Thank you, the bike almost 20 years old I bought it off the floor. Changed it color several times, but never had the heart to get rid of the old girl. So, I'll just have to keep her. Ride A Nice Day.

When I first got started, I got a lot of good advice from Steve Good you tube. I also got some pretty good free pattern's. Have A Great Day

I am in whole, hearted agreement, make sure the blade is running in the right direction, if installed upside down that might be the problem with cutting the wood. That pulls the wood up giving the false sense of vibration. Have A Great Day.

Got the weight, now I'll have to install it and try it out. We will see if there is any difference after I install it. I'll Know tomorrow. Have A Great Day.

I'm not 100% sure about the issue, but I finally came across a weight that was designed for the 1987 Hegner Multicut-3. I was told that this model had vibration concerns, maybe that is why they don't make this model anymore. I bought this scroll saw back a few months ago, I'm just smoothing out...

I found some pictures of these weights, what do you think ever seen or heard of these?
