Default Total Eclipse of my shop

Hi everyone my wife was going to buy me another scrollsaw for my birthday in about four months and I was gonna get the DW-788, But after reading about a lot of you having to return them three or four times I told her to forget it I said that I could wait for now,when she woke up this morning she asked me to show her the one that JZ. uses she said I could get that one instead if that's what I want. I don't know if you have seen or heard of the Eclipse scrollsaw but you can stand a dime on edge while cutting and there is so little vibration it wont fall down It's amazing and so is my wife,Well back to work thanks for reading.Jerry

Well, if you don't like it, I'll trade you for my Hawk. I can stand a brick on its edge while I'm scrolling.

The Eclipse looks like a fantastic saw. You lucky dog!

Good deal Jerry. I thought I did good when my wife suggested the G4. Looks like I am not as good as I thought I was. Have fun.

The back is higher on my P 20, so if I put a nickel on it, it will roll off the table.
