We have several electrical scrollsaws. One is usually sitting in the woodshop on the bench. The others are usually on top of the cupboard in the metal working area or near the toilets.

The blades are stored in a woodendrawer above the miter saw, all the way to the right, labeled "figuurzaagjes."

blades

Blades break easily; spare ones cost around a 5 for a pack of 10 or so.

If you need blades for them - you typically want the `figuurzaag met dwarsstift’; [Hartwijk] usually have them as to some of the local builders markets (Gamma).

One of the machines will take a normal (without pin) saw blade. I.e. the same type as the Handheld Figuurzaag Jigsaw/scrollsaw. [Hartwijk] and the local builder shops almost always have these.

You generally want the right type for wood, metal or whatever you are sawing.

You can buy a set of 5 (extra fine to rough) at the Praxis for 7 euro (brandEinhell).

If you want to be re-imbursed; keep the receipt & tell the mailing lists that you've bought them.

change the bladesThis applies to the Einhell DKS 405:
To replace a blade: release the tension on the saw blade using the tension adjustment knob at the bottom at the back. Then, push the arm down and first pull the bottom of the blade forward, followed by the top, to remove it.

To install a saw blade: first secure the bottom, then the top, and finally adjust the tension.

If that doesn’t work, remove the left panel by unscrewing the three screws. You will then see where the saw blade should fit.

use

These machines are for wood and metal; but acrylic and similar materials work fine.

Metal use

Do not use the machine in the woodshop for metal (to avoid contaminating the wood with oil and filing; this ruining peoples lacquer). Instead take one of the other machines to the metal shop and use it there.
