cleaned up the new scroll saw and snapped a couple pics



after having read the manual cover to cover 3 times bewteen yesterday and today, and having triple checked that everything was set up properly. I turned the saw on for the first time. The chugging/clunking sound I heard didnt seem right. I stopped it. Pondered. Turned it on again...same thing. Turned up the SPM a bit, same deal. Somethings not right. Removed the service panel to find this part's mount completely cracked!!!






I am absolutely certain that this part was cracked all along, not by me first running it because there was definitely no loud snap or anything, I just switched it on and clunk clunk clunk. f me

cracked motor mount, thats that with that. Now I have to go thru the bs of getting the thing replaced (the whole machine) and if they think I am bringing anywhere or shipping it to them they are out of their stinking minds. They can send a new one and come pick up the old one minus the stand that I am not rebuilding.

Ill sort thru the warranty crap tomr, and for some reason when offered the lowes warranty thing on top of the price of the saw (extra 20 bucks one year) I actually bought the thing I NEVER buy those things. Maybe a 6th sense in this case, who knows.

oh well.
