Best Scroll Saw UK Reviews

Thanks for taking your time to read our reviews on the best scroll saws that are currently available on the United Kingdom marketplace.

A scroll saw is a small electric saw that is used to cut intricate curves in wood, metal, or other materials. The blade is very fine and it is used for intricate cutting jobs that would take far too long with a standard, hand held, fret saw.

This is basically a really fine reciprocating saw and its great for accuracy when you are doing fine joints or curves. The blade can also be removed and put down through a hole in your material, so you don't always need to cut from the edge.

Just below you will see our top 5 list of scroll saws. However, we also know you are busy, so if you don't have time to read our full review, we would highly recommend the Proxxon DSH 2 Speed Scroll Saw .

Scroll Saw Buying Tips

These saws are great for fine work and are used mostly on wood. They will work on most materials, so if you are buying one then the main difference in them is the type of blade you use. This will be your first decision.

Skip tooth blades have a tooth, a gap, and then another tooth;
Double skip tooth blades (two teeth, a gap, then two teeth);
Crown or two-way blades have teeth facing both up and down so that the blade cuts on both the down-stroke (as with all other blades) and the up-stroke;
Spiral blades are regular flat blades that are twisted, so that teeth cut on all sides;
Metal cutting blades, for metal obviously
Diamond blades for cutting glass.

So really it depends on what type of material you are cutting. The saws will come with standard wood cutting blades so if you are cutting a varied range of material then i suggest you order the blades you need at the same time. I hate having an expensive tool and not having the right accessories for it ! If you are going to connect a vac to one of these machines we don't recommend that you use a home version. It's always best to have a good quality HD shop vacuum.
