Hello,
I have had a Rockwell Scrollsaw for a few years. It is very nice looking machine. It has about 30" throat, so it is big. The problem why I haven't used it was because it did not have chuck jaws. So I got with some of my friends, designed and built some. It holds the blades quite well, but it keeps breaking them. I assume it is because there is not enough tension. Do I need to replace the tension spring? Or is there some other problem? Any advice would be greatly appreciated.
