Page 10

A table insert blank (B) Fig. 22, is supplied as standard equipment with your scroll saw and can be used when cutting very small workpieces to give added support to the bottom of the workpiece. Simply cut a slot into the blank and replace the standard insert (A) with the blank

(B). The slot cut into the blank (B) will only be as wide as the blade giving maximum support to the bottom of the workpiece.
