Which of these Scrolls is the better buy?

[Martin1962]

I am looking for a s/h scroll saw, as opposed to buying a new £100-£130 Chinese special….
A Delta saw local to me for £60 or a Hegner for £100, but a 120 mile round trip to collect…..
Pictures below…….
Which, assuming they are both working fine, would be the better buy….

Cheers

Hegner 100%

Seconded.
Delta are not in any way a premium brand.

If the Delta was complete, I would have said, buy the Delta but the top clamp is not the Quickset clamp, it's a make do solution. I've used my Delta for 30 years, so I'd consider it to being a premium brand. Though I'd have to admit that I don't know what criteria is used when deciding what defines what is a premium brand.
