PS Wood Machines scroll saw

[Porter Bassett]

Does anybody here have any experience with the PS Wood Machines scroll saw? I have an opportunity to buy one for $300, but I don't want to drive 1.5 hours just to check it out if it's not worth my time.

In particular, can anybody tell me how it stacks up to the DeWalt 788?

I bought one, and returned it, because it had bearing problems. The replacement had arm alignment problems so it went back too. I got a refund and bought a Delta, just before the DeWalt came out. I wish that I had known about the DeWalt, because that is the one that I would have bought. I have used the DeWalt, and will own one someday. It is still the best on the market in that price range.
