I've been watching your videos but never thought about looking at the really old ones. Your brain is just amazing. You're such a genius and so talented.
Wow, that's an impressive machine. It's like a dynamic sculpture. I like the use of a vfd, too. I tried building solid state drives from components and had limited success, and finally just decided to order one.
I know Matthias doesn't use a scroll saw all that often, but it would be really cool to see him make plans for a wooden one based on this design. Either that, or it would be nice to see a more detailed explanation from Mikiono, ideally with English subtitles!
Wow, excellent work. That looks like a scrollsaw anyone would be proud of. (it actually looked like it vibrates less than my DeWalt!) Congratulations on a great build and amazing creativity. Aloha. Clayton
I really like these home-made equipment projects. These projects remind me that I can probably make whatever I need and I do not have to go to the box-store to buy those things, if I don't want to. If I ever make anything like this though, I want to use some clear acrylic sheets in the construction. I am going to want to see inside the thing to see how everything is going together.
if you stiffen the arm (by laminating an aluminum sheet between the plys) you'll increase the resonant frequency. To lower it, add some mass to the arms, like lead weights.
I really like this method. My only concern is how you ensured the vertically of the augured 20mm holes? I would think if you were slightly off vertical the dogs either wouldn't fit or they also wouldn't be vertical either. Great video and channel
Man, I just saw your video of making screw clamp and got impressed, so decided to follow you. Now, this scroll saw is even more impressive! Congratulations!
Back in the mid seventies,Fine Woodworking magazine published a fairly lengthy article on two mostly plywood table saws,one built heavily enough to take the abuse of students. If interested,back issues or collections are available occasionally. From the photos it seemed a very doable project. You might be interested.
Eric D. Well here are some options. FW magazine publishes an abstract every 5 years,listing the articles published. Many libraries have carried since it was young. Your local branch may have in archive,many back issues. If not,interlibrary loans are very doable. I just looked at the home pages of the mag,they sell a CD of all their back issues for US $99.95 .The article I remember dates from around 1978 or1977. I remember it well,but not which issue. The author was very proud of his efforts and mentioned that his saw was preferred by his students over the well made all metal ones. Could also purchase collections of magazines.
Unfortunately, I do not live in the US and we don't have this magazine here, so as far as libraries or physical copy goes, it is not a thing. As far as buying a US $99.95 CD for ONE article, I do not believe this is an alternative. I would've bought the article itself (if it is still something that can be found on eBay or such websites), but I do not see the point in buying all the articles for one of them. This is the reason why I was asking if you knew the article number, so it would make my search much more easier, as I never saw the article or the magazine itself and you did. (By the way, US $99.95 is about CAD $140, so it's even worse. If the $US to $CAD conversion wasn't that bad, I would think of it, but not right now.) If you ever find it and remember this post, I would be glad and grateful if you reply with the number :) Otherwise, I will be searching in my spare times to see if I can find it even without knowing the cover page and all that.
Well you mention CAD. I live in Canuckistan myself. Most libraries carry FW. Again the 5 year abstracts seem to be the be the way to what you want. Sorry for being unable to detail exact issue. I read the article several times back in the day as a way to begin a heavy machinery collection. It really stuck in my memory for some reason. Good luck with the endeavour. The Taunton press published a shitton of collections of different articles. Maybe try ABE books,every once in a while people sell collections of back issues. You probably know more sites on line than I do,so any recommendations I make are redundant. Cheers.
Mattias, es usted el Leonardo da Vinci del siglo XXI. Fabulosas todas sus herramientas de madera y muy buenos trabajos realizados con ellas. Enhorabuena y saludos desde Zaragoza (España)
Mathias you rules... I have seeing all your videos, everything is amazing. Actually thank you I already bougth a pantorouter and is comming to my home :) keep going... one day I will be like you!
Miki said frame should have been made stronger and is interested in resonant frequency. How is that middle rib @1:33 integrated into the frame? Is the side of the box made of two pieces of plywood, each piece of plywood set between two ribs? Is the middle rib two ribs glued together after each half was constructed?
Olá Mattihas. Já aprendi muita coisa assistindo seus vídeos. Pode me ajudar com minha tico-tico de bancada feita em casa? A lâmina da serra está no esquadro mas quando empurro a madeira, o corte não segue a linha e sai para a esquerda. O que poderia ser?
This is very ingenious .... one fast question .. when the motor was doing the resonance the shaking was the biggest,... even when the HZ increased more than the resonance the shaking got less right ? if it's right then how to calculate that resonance frequency ?
I was just thinking that the saw probably runs pretty smooth at ANY harmonic of 60 hz, (assuming you have the same kind of a.c. mains power in Canada) because that's how the motor was designed. although I guess you'd also factor in a couple of other things like the reciprication of the saw blade itself. The wooden wheel he's got on there could have a self adjusting counter-balance like 1/2 of a governor on old steam engines, or even a more robust version of the centrifugal switch used motors.
Really great Mikiono, well done. Would be interesting to see more about some of the other gear you've got around your workshop. I hope someone can translate this :-)
Hello Matthias Wandel, Can you please tell us what motor was used in this project? Where can we find and buy motors for diy scroll saws? Thank you in advance!
great made. very attractive machine. its not metallic but it seems as durable and stable as it needed, with this system you can even repair a broken blade by your self, things are not made so good today
woodjock An oscilating sander is a type of machine that's cheaper to buy than build. But if you must build one, buy one, take it apart, and use those parts - again, the cheapest and most practical way.
i dont think his question is answered i think what he is asking is that "the resonance is at 20 Hz if you exceed that 20Hz does it smooth out and run as if it were running at 15Hz?" i would think it should unless something is out of balance.
Wow :) Very Special thinking and design. I love your video's, and this is one of the finest. Have a Lovely year, and I do hope that you keep the video's coming this year and you do hit the Miljon too. I wish you shared that bluprint thou :)
North American power companies produce 60 hz. They have more trouble maintaining 60 hz than voltage otherwise clocks would not work correctly. Most of the rest of the world uses 50 hz. House power is nominally 115 volts( 110 -- 120) and 230 volts( 220 -- 240) single phase. Electricity generation is always 3 phase. A 3 phase motor is smaller than the same HP rating of a single phase motor.
A lot of work and thought went into this machine. Not the best type of machine for fine fretwork, but good enough for courser work. People don't build things like this for practical use, or to save money. They do it for the challenge of doing something unusual or difficult. The cost of the hardwood in this machine would buy a pretty good commercially made machine, but what would be the challenge in that?
***** This is important. When I first got my scroll saw, it mostly just sat there for four years because I didn't know where to find patterns. now, with the internet, it is easy to find all the patterns I can use.
Uses guideage blade Festool jigsaw (or Festo) they patented this system for a long time, I have one that has more than 20 years and has not any game, a wonder (this is a Festo, Festool former name). Very nice achievement for the eyes .. thank you.
I found a source for a liniar saw movement - a fridge compressor inside the silent piston is massive and made from quality parts . Removing the air valves section and use-it is easy
I've been watching your videos but never thought about looking at the really old ones. Your brain is just amazing. You're such a genius and so talented.
I could watch this over and over! What a beautiful machine!
Wow, that's an impressive machine. It's like a dynamic sculpture. I like the use of a vfd, too. I tried building solid state drives from components and had limited success, and finally just decided to order one.
This isn't just a tool...it's a work of art!
I know Matthias doesn't use a scroll saw all that often, but it would be really cool to see him make plans for a wooden one based on this design. Either that, or it would be nice to see a more detailed explanation from Mikiono, ideally with English subtitles!

You make the things you work on wood with out of wood? Which came first the chicken or the egg? My mind is blown.
I really like these home-made equipment projects. These projects remind me that I can probably make whatever I need and I do not have to go to the box-store to buy those things, if I don't want to.

Shaking should be greatest at the resonant frequency, yes. But that is more experimentation than calculation.
Man, I just saw your video of making screw clamp and got impressed, so decided to follow you. Now, this scroll saw is even more impressive! Congratulations!

If it is indeed issue #41, I think that is still available: www.amazon.com/Fine-Woodworking-Magazine-July-August/dp/B000QFQ8YG
I can say: I'm amazed by your work
It's a neat effect, almost looks deliberate.
This scroll saw build is the best one I saw
why is the little camera video so shaky
Mattias, es usted el Leonardo da Vinci del siglo XXI. Fabulosas todas sus herramientas de madera y muy buenos trabajos realizados con ellas. Enhorabuena y saludos desde Zaragoza (España)

Your homemade machines are super cool - the band saw one would scare the crap out of me but the rest are amazing
Nice! You should try building a spindle sander. It would come in handy in your shop and would be a really interesting and challenging build.
Not only the gear, I also found the lampshade very interesting - fine art indeed :-).
Olá Mattihas. Já aprendi muita coisa assistindo seus vídeos. Pode me ajudar com minha tico-tico de bancada feita em casa? A lâmina da serra está no esquadro mas quando empurro a madeira, o corte não segue a linha e sai para a esquerda. O que poderia ser?

one fast question .. when the motor was doing the resonance the shaking was the biggest,...
even when the HZ increased more than the resonance the shaking got less right ?
if it's right then how to calculate that resonance frequency ?
yes, very good but does it perform better than a shop tool? Your panto-copiers etc. are unique(-ish) tools but why a scroll saw?
I was just thinking that the saw probably runs pretty smooth at ANY harmonic of 60 hz, (assuming you have the same kind of a.c. mains power in Canada) because that's how the motor was designed. although I guess you'd also factor in a couple of other things like the reciprication of the saw blade itself.

Can a second hand sewing machine or parts off one. Be used to make a scroll saw. Just a thought.
Really great Mikiono, well done. Would be interesting to see more about some of the other gear you've got around your workshop. I hope someone can translate this :-)
Hello Matthias Wandel,
Can you please tell us what motor was used in this project? Where can we find and buy motors for diy scroll saws?
Thank you in advance!
That's what happens when you let youtube stabilize the video AFTER you put a caption in the video itself! oops!
I was eyeing our ancient sewing machine for just such a project myself. :)
great made. very attractive machine. its not metallic but it seems as durable and stable as it needed, with this system you can even repair a broken blade by your self, things are not made so good today
Would you consider building a osculating drum sander? I enjoy your progects very much & would like to think about building a osculating drum sander
woodjock An oscilating sander is a type of machine that's cheaper to buy than build. But if you must build one, buy one, take it apart, and use those parts - again, the cheapest and most practical way.
+woodjock I like my sanders, but don't want to kiss them.
Beautiful machine. Looks elegant. thumbs up
Thank you for this great effort and I hope that show sizes and volumes this machine and how to install it and how to work the motor speeds
Whats the difference between a jig and a scroll saw?
you are the only engineer i have respect for
Wow, fabulous workmamship.
Our north american mains power is mostly closer to 50hz, (as far as I know), not that that changes your comment, just adding data.
i dont think his question is answered i think what he is asking is that
"the resonance is at 20 Hz if you exceed that 20Hz does it smooth out and run as if it were running at 15Hz?"
i would think it should unless something is out of balance.
Fine piece of woodworking!
Great professional accompany your videos ever Do you have video building this machine?
Amazing work
Thank you Matthias! You show us only cool stuff...
Wow :) Very Special thinking and design. I love your video's, and this is one of the finest. Have a Lovely year, and I do hope that you keep the video's coming this year and you do hit the Miljon too. I wish you shared that bluprint thou :)
do you think you will be making one yourself in the future?
hello is there any way to find this plans ?
Very good looking Saw
What would be the benefit of using this saw as opposed to a band saw?
Tsgtr is a weird RUclips name
tsgtr these can cut much tighter and more complex corners and shapes.
scroll saws use finer blades and you can insert the blade into a middle of a shape without cutting a gap.
Its a robot uprising!
does Mikiono offer plans for building this amazing scroll saw?
Congratulations Matthias !! I like to buy the plans
@Matthias Wandel you can remove the stabilization (Please!) if you had YT do it. Slick saw! Scott
But, Will it blend?
That's a stunning thing
Love your stuff.I have a question were do you get the motors from .
electromic shops
Kal,mi,,9977983252
Congratulations Matthias !! I like to buy the plans ,
excellent result !!!
How to make it ?
HI, this is so cool. where can i download the plans??
Is there some blue prints?
Great job!
It's...so beautiful...
Just read the accompanying article.
How is the lamp shade made?
What a great piece of art! :)
Wow unique model 😍😍

hermano de verdad muy buenos tus inventos sigue así que en Venezuela eres un mago y felicitaciones de nuevo sigue así!!!!!
plans please ?
That took a minute or two. Good Job.

how in the world to do you figure this stuff out :)
Now isn't the controller to the machine same as was used in space shuttle Buran. LOL. What a perfect machine
boa noite,se for possivel me mande o projeto dessa maquina,gosto de mais dos seus trabalhos,parabéns.
Cristiano Machado click na descrição do vídeo para ver o projeto
I would like to see an air compressor version
Awesome !
i wish to have the plan of this project..
Very Impressive!
As always... awesome & interesting ;-)! No Doubt.
excelente , gran trabajo .
piękna konstrukcja oraz wykonanie
この人のアイデアには何時も感心します。
That seems like a really big motor for such a saw.
that admiration
Yes, nice.
Bro, do you even cut?
I found a source for a liniar saw movement - a fridge compressor inside the silent piston is massive and made from quality parts .
Removing the air valves section and use-it is easy
hats off !
beautiful machine!!!
Very nice machine.
Very good!
wood porn, wood porn everywhere.
That piston popping out the top is a safety hazard. I mean, good work on building this and all, but really kind of a dangerous machine
Easy enough to fix if you *really* care about that.
🙏🏻per piacere puoi mettere la traduzione in italiano ai tuoi video.
Love it!
I like your work friend, I invite you to see mine, best regards
This guy would have gotten the whole Gilligan Island castaway group off the island in a week....hahaha Too COOL.
You sir, love to work with wood don't you?
