I included three sizes of this basket in the pattern. Small 4.25" diameter, medium 6.25" diameter, and large 8" diameter. You can change the height of the basket by adjusting the number of center rings you cut.
If it is too good to be true. It is probably not true!
I am starting to receive emails from readers asking about the under $100 Delta 40-694 scroll saw sales. Take a look at the random ads I pulled off of Google Shopping and Amazon below. The Delta 40-694 has been in very limited supply for the last couple of years. The price has skyrocketed. It has jumped from under $300 on Amazon to over $750 on Amazon from the Amazon Delta store.
At $300 the Delta 40-694 was a very good deal. At $768 it is a terrible deal. I understand that Delta is probably having supply problems so I understand the price increase but I still would not recommend anyone to purchase the saw for the current price.
Now I will get to the bigger problem. Online stores are advertising the Delta 40-694 for under $100. There is no way that can be a legitimate price. The only company I recognize in the ads below is ACME Tools. They are a legit tool company and guess what? They are selling it for $768. I still would not buy it from them but at least they are honest in the price.
If any of these companies are legit I would eat my hat. They don't list the saws as remanufactured or used but even if they did the price would still be ridiculously low.
I have had two emails in just the last week who were considering the purchase of one of these sub $100 Delta saws. I don't want to tell you how to spend your money but unless you have more information than I do I would steer clear.
