The best piece of equipment I ever owned.Aug 25, 2010
By idattu
I just noticed a lack of reviews on this saw and wanted to do my part to rectify the situation. Some secrets are better not kept. I owned one of these saws for nigh on 10 years and I NEVER had even one issue with it. I bought it with the triangle stand, which gave a very good support even without bolting it down.
One of the ways I would demonstrate the smoothness of the saw is that I would set a nickel on edge and turn the saw on and up to full speed. The nickel never fell over or vibrated off towards the edge. Before this saw I had owned a Dremel brand and the saw itself would almost vibrate off the table! Exact cutting requires full concentration and a rattling machine fully destroys that.
I was able to cut 2" Madagascar Rosewood (a very dense wood) with this saw. For fine work the saw was more precise than my hand/eye coordination. The unique setup for blade changing was fast and easy. The saw has a bellows with a tube that blows away the sawdust as you work, keeping the cutting line clear and visible.
The thing is expensive so if you don't plan to give it heavy use, maybe one of the other saws might be enough for you. I've heard some good things about some of the other high-end saws. But... if you need a precise tool that performs trouble free for years of heavy use, then I would have to say that I can not imagine a better choice. This thing whispers and hums, but never chatters.
I had to sell mine years ago, and now I am back in the market. Hegner won my loyalty and I'm not even considering another brand.

The Hegner saw is hands down the most user-friendly scroll-saw I have ever seen or used.
