PORTER-CABLE 18
Manufacturing quality tools since 1906, PORTER-CABLE has always managed to deliver superior quality equipment that won’t cost you an arm and a leg. The brand’s 18-inch Variable Speed Scroll Saw fits the bill for being another one of their power tools that performs effectively and very often, even surpasses expectations.
Complete with a sturdy steel stand, a large cutting table, and cam-locking blade tension for faster blade changes, we are certain that this unit would be welcomed in any workshop.
As industrious as this scroll saw looks, however, the motor lacks power in comparison with similar models and might not be the best choice if you plan on using it for commercial purposes. On the other hand, it’s perfectly capable of cutting accurately through a variety of materials and we were very impressed with its ease of use. The stable die-cast aluminium table, for instance, has been designed to tilt at a variety of angles to accommodate intricate cuts while drastically reducing vibrations. For the amateur woodworker or professional hobbyist, this saw is a great choice. You may also like to check our guide to the best tile saws.
