miranthis Posted February 22, 2016 Report Share Posted February 22, 2016 I got a Gizzly 22 inch G0537 Scroll Saw today for FREE from the guy at the new lumber yard I discovered. :-) He got it from a local farmer and it was just collecting dust. I got it home today and it is on a dewalt scroll saw bench. I looked it over and it is not much used. However, the bellows is dry rotted to nearly dust. I checked grizzly's web site and the bellows is discontinued. Anyone have a source for these? Now, I have not really needed a scroll saw, so I will either have to find a use for it or I suppose sell it. Jeff in KC Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chet Posted February 22, 2016 Report Share Posted February 22, 2016 I would think about calling Grizzly direct and asking if they know of a substitute part. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gary-ks Posted March 1, 2016 Report Share Posted March 1, 2016 "Now, I have not really needed a scroll saw, so I will either have to find a use for it or I suppose sell it. " It was "FREE" to you if you have no need for it why not "Pay It Forward" and ask a local club if they would have any use for something like it. I am sure some local Boy Scout or Girl Scout club would love to have it to teach children the joys of woodworking............. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jHop Posted March 1, 2016 Report Share Posted March 1, 2016 And I was just contemplating asking if I should get a scroll saw or a small 10" bandsaw.... (Not that I'm asking you to send this to me.) There's quite a few places that would appreciate a saw like that. Not on a regular basis, unfortunately. You could also look into maker spaces and see if they want to buy it cheap (I wouldn't charge them more than $100, especially with the missing part). Or look into community workshops that might need additional tools. Lower prices sales or outright donations might get you onto favorable lists with them, which you can turn into helpers for larger lumber acquisition or shop space when needed.
