Review: Read instructions - Fantastic machine
Review: Not the best saw - but affordable. - Like many of the reviewers, my experience with the Genesis scroll saw was marred by bad problems. First, the table would not stay in position no matter how hard I applied tension to the set-screw, that orange knob on the front of the saw. I fixed it by adding two washers, one before and one behind the set screw. Then came the foot adjustment height. This too was lose no matter how much I tightened it. I resolved this problem by putting a small piece of emory paper in the raceway. Finally, there is a large sticker that covered half the table on the left side. This should have been easy to pull off. It wasn't. No matter how carefully I pulled the edges, it would strip down to the layer before the stick-um. It took a full hour to remove the sticker using a combination of a razor blade and acetone. I finally got it resolved and applied a layer of wax to the table to facilitate material moving over the table. Next came a test run of the saw. It was quite accurate at all speeds when sawing everything from pine, to oak, to poplar, cutting a small circle of 3/16th in diameter. I'll keep it, not because it's the best saw but because it's affordable and does the trick for me.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great for my activities.
*by S***T on March 11, 2012*

This saw is adequate for my needs. It came to me with a pin blade and blade guard in place. The feet, screws, allen wrench, flexible dust blower and two extra blades were in a sealed bag. The feet and flexible hose were easily attached, using just my left hand. I made sure all knobs were securely screwed in place. Having tested the saw on my level work bench I found that there is vibration increasing with ever higher speed adjustments. Removing the feet and applying rubber washers and ¼" lag bolts to attach it directly to the bench significantly reduced the vibration. I might add here that for my purposes I will be using only the lower ranges on the speed dial. However, I'm confident that if I should want to tackle a 1-2" wood project this saw will be very handy. It runs smoothly and quietly. My arthritic hands are no longer able to use a utility knife, X-acto knife, linoleum knife, scissors etc. for cutting shapes out of dense materials such as book board, craft foam, gasket materials, cork etc. I have a Logan mat cutter, a Carl and a Pazzles for dense paper and light gage card and mat board. All of my cutting tools will relieve the wear and tear on my hand joints. This scroll saw will allow me to continue the many crafts I enjoy creating when I'm not painting in my studio. I've used my hands pretty hard most of my life. Now, I'm recovering from re-constructive surgery on my right hand, my left hand will be operated on in several months. With great care and concentration the Genesis will allow me to work one handed for now and two handed later on. Yes, it's cheap, made in China. And, I'm sure that my retired father a master carpenter and certified teacher of the trade would not have bought this saw. But, for my crafty projects this is adequate and seems to me to be the best value for the dollar. (Under $100. in a damaged box from Amazons Warehouse Deals)
