just a heads up hegner are having a sale beginning this Friday 15% of all machines and accessories
don't ask me how I know .....I just know 8)
for example if you buy a muliticut 2s that I have been thinking of upgrading to variable speed you will save 120 pounds
very tempting for me and if I sold my h 1 even better but I will still need about 400 , I have the money no problem but i cannot justify it not when I have a 3 year old hegner m 1 that does most things , variable speed would be nice but I don't think I would use it much as correct blade seletion cures most things , for instance yesterday I was cutting out a lot of internal cuts in 6mm ply and I started with a no 3 blade which was ok but a little too aggressive
changed to fd no1 and it was fine any slower speed and it would have not cut as cleanly and I was able to control the work piece with no problems I always find when I have used lower speeds on other machines that the blade dosent seem to like it as much and seems happier at a constant regular higher speed
the lowest I go too is 4mm so I think I will be ok I think if you are doing metal or plastics or some wood 2mm or less then variable would be an advantage more
I had a delta two speed years ago and I never used the 400 speed because it was too slow for what I was cutting
anyway for anyone without a hegner and has been bemoaning the prices now is the time to go for it a h1 single will save you around 60 pounds making it around 350 = postage still not cheap but still its a saving :lol: or you you could get a variable speed h1 for not much more than a full price single speed =D>
