Amazon.com Product Description

The Delta Shopmaster SS350LS Deluxe Variable Speed Scroll Saw is an excellent choice for the any woodworker or shop with occasional scrollwork cut needs. With it’s smooth operating 2 amp motor, weighty cast iron base and solid stand, you will feel very little vibration. This saw will provide hours of pleasurable operation and clean quality cuts. The stand legs attach quickly, and put the saw at a comfortable sit-down height and make it easy to maneuver.

Motor speed and blade is controlled by an infinitely adjustable speed dial control (600-1650 SPM), giving you flexibility to cut wood, metal, and plastics. Its 16-inch throat depth and tear drop shape, 11-¾-inch diameter forward portion, make it ideal for working with large pieces up to 16 inches wide. There is also a 0 to 45 degree left tilt for bevel cuts.

Unique to Delta is a patented blade changing system, QuickSett II® Chuck, which uses tool-free, quick-release levers to loosen and reclamp the upper and lower blade holds. This will come in handy when you are doing a lot of inside cuts.

It also comes with a fingertip blade tensioning control which with its ease to adjust help you maximizes blade life. It uses 5-inch, plain-end type blades, allowing for greater flexibility and versatility with a range of materials.

Dust is controlled by an articulated, flexible dust blower which allows you to position it to where you need it for a clear line of sight on your wood piece and a large dust cup below the table collects the dust as you cut.

We also like the hold-down foot on this saw. It’s easy to adjust for flat or beveled work. The stock holddown is quick and easy to set up and holds materials up to 2 inches in thickness at 90 degrees or 1 inch at 45 degrees.

With all these features, you’ll get years of pleasure crafting all of the beautiful, intricate designs you can dream up. -- Sue Gregori

3.0 out of 5 stars Nice Saw For The Money! ** 3-3/4 STARS**, July 14, 2004

This review is from: DELTA SS350LS Shopmaster Deluxe 2 Amp 16-Inch Benchtop Scroll Saw with Stand (Tools & Home Improvement)

Performance is very smooth and the dust collection box is a nice addition to this Delta Scrollsaw! The lower blade clamp is difficult to use due to limited area available to move fingers around in...NOT recommended for anyone with arthritis! Dust blower needs major improvement in pressure but for the money, all in all, this is a good saw. The stand reduces vibration 100 fold and the On/Off lock switch is a great idea for anyone with youngsters around. Extended table is a great improvement for supporting large, delicate fretwork pieces and the tilt table is great for beveled wood working. This is a nice improvement from my last Delta Scrollsaw but Delta still needs to make changes to the increase "available work space" in the lower blade clamp area to make it more "user friendly" before I'd consider giving it a higher rating. I've been operating a scrollsaw for over 7 years to make my living and so far... so good with this model!

4.0 out of 5 stars Excelent Saw with some drawbacks, April 4, 2005

This review is from: DELTA SS350LS Shopmaster Deluxe 2 Amp 16-Inch Benchtop Scroll Saw with Stand (Tools & Home Improvement)

I have had this saw for a year. It has been very reliable and gets a lot of use. I have done a lot of assorted projects and am getting more serious about very detailed Fret work. This is where the limitations of the saw surface. There is about 1/8" front to back motion in the blade which makes very fine viening and internal cuts very difficult. All of the bearings seem a little sloppy to me. For the level of sawing that I want to achieve I will be buying a Hegner or a RBI Hawk (>$1000. ) I will keep the saw for its portability (club meetings). It is an excellent saw in its price range and a much better saw than some offerings from Dremel and Craftsman. The blade clamps are supper. The bottom clamps are easy to access if you remove the dust collector.

3.0 out of 5 stars China Made Machines!, July 10, 2006

This review is from: DELTA SS350LS Shopmaster Deluxe 2 Amp 16-Inch Benchtop Scroll Saw with Stand (Tools & Home Improvement)

This scroll saw came with an upper arm clamp that sat on a 5 degree angle. The mounting area for the clamp was finished off crudely on a belt sander. I also had to straighten the upper blade clamping lever. It was bent in so far that it could not clamp the blade. Even though Delta made good on this and sent a replacement arm within 5 days. This is the second Delta machine that I own. The other is the 12" diameter disk sander. I had problems with that one too. I believe that you can expect problems with Delta's made in China. They just haven't achieved good quality control as of yet.
