1300 LB Scroll Saw - Scroll Saw Woodworking & Crafts Message Board

hotshot · 08-19-2012, 04:25 AM

Gotta wonder what they use this baby for. 1300 lbs, 39 inch throat, and can cut almost 4" of material. Uses a 12" blade with a 2 hp motor.

TruPRO JS 1300. or the smaller version js-208

Any way, I thought it was cool

I'd hate to be the one to hold the 39", 4" thick piece of stock to cut it! That's an awesome saw tho'. Thanks for posting it. Don

now for something that big a HOLD DOWN might be considered as useful............that thing looks like it could chatter the teeth of any smaller user.

I agree a holddown would be a wise decision on the large model. Four inch

stock would be a challenge for most of us.

I don't think Mike has blades for it so I'm out.
