Is this the best $100 scroll saw?

WEN 3921 Scroll Saw

In this video, I will take a look at the WEN 3921 16" scroll saw. I will do some comparisons with higher-end saws. I will show you some tips to make this saw easier to use. I'll also give you an overall impression of how well it works.

*This is my second WEN tool and they are both great **MyBest.Tools** I needed to do some trim work around the house and needed a scroll saw for the intricate work. No complaints so far.*

I can't thank you enough for all this info. This is seriously one of the best posts I've found. I appreciate the comparisons of the makers directions vs yours. The example of the more high end machine is also really helpful. I've been guilty of wanting to give up on a hobby because the entry level tools were difficult to work and so I assumed the higher end tools would be as well. Your blade changing on both machines reminds me not to assume all tools are so challenging. I can't wait to get started in this. Thank you again for sharing this.

You must have been a shop teacher in a past life. Absolutely the best video out there on this machine, and you made my life a lot easier.

I used a hundred dollar Ryobi for over 20 years. Used and abused; it got the job done. A few years ago I finally upgraded, and it was worth it for the ease of blade changing alone! However, I don't regret starting with a "cheap" saw one bit. I learned a lot and I got more than my money's worth out of it.

LOVE LOVE LOVE the fact that you explain the details. MANY beginners are looking at cheap tools and we don't know the particulars (like blade specifics). Thanks for explaining those things! Great review, and great learning experience. You have a new subscriber!!

Just bought this to start my new CV19 hobby. Very informative for a newbie as i literally knew nothing on scrollsaws.

Fantastic demonstration! To the point without a lot of chit chat. Many thanks.

Love the tip on using the magnet. I also have the same pinless blade adapter. This should help

Steve, good information for those looking for an entry level saw. Thanks for taking the time to do the video.

Thank you so much for explaining a newbie how to use this scroll saw. It was gifted to me and I am so excited to use it, and with your help I feel 100% confident I can change the blades as needed ❤

Hi Steve, love how you teach, it's informative and to the point while covering every question I had. Learned some new things too. Thanks again!!

Wow! Such a helpful video! Thank you! I recently purchased this scroll saw- I'm a beginner- and feel much more confident in how to use it. Thanks for sharing your helpful hacks!

This was a great demo to the 3921 Wen scroll saw. The directions in the box did not show how to use the pinless blades. Thanks for the video.

i picked up a Dremel 1680 variable speed for 75 dollars and it seems well made and is very heavy.
It uses both pined and plane end blades.
I had to derust the table but it works great now.
On the 1680 the cover under the table opens back on hinges which allows easy access without taking screws out.
Thanks for making and sharing this video. I'm looking forward to starting some small projects.

Taking the side cover off makes sense as far as simplifying blade changes. Ordered mine as a first go at scroll saw work and looking forward to checking it out. Super informative!

[travisnagy]

This was a very helpful video. Useful as I try and figure out which one to buy for my little shop. Thanks for a straight-ahead, informative presentation.

Thanks so much! Yours's is a very accurate description of this unit. I just bought one, and all the inconveniences you display are spot on. But, as you said, this isn't a tool I will be using a lot, just to play/teach the grand kids with, so it's a very capable machine for the non commercial user.

BEST video I've seen for this saw. And yeah, that side "tool box" thing is CRAP. I broke the clasp off the first time I tried to close it!!

[martingsilva]

Sr I am starting in scroll saw like this and you have done a full comprehensive video with tips and excellent explanations. Big thanks from the bottom of my heart. Have a blessed year!!!

I have the Central Machinery Scroll Saw. I replaced the adapter for pinless blades. It’s works a lot better with the new adapter. Also, I took off the side cover on the left side. For getting into the underside as well as vacuuming it out is easier. You video is great. Looking forward to getting a higher end soon.
