Acquired a 1950 ish Walker Turner 24" scroll saw about 10 years ago and it has been taking up room ever since. With the exception of a pulley cover, all parts appear to be present and in good working condition. I have never used a scroll saw and would not know the difference between this old unit and a newer model. Is this thing worth fixing up and using as a scroll saw? I remember someone once told me that this type of saw was no good and would not compare to a new lower end Delta let alone a + 1,200.00 German model.
I've fixed up a 1950 ish Rockwell/Delta bandsaw and Dewalt RAS and they are awesome. So I'm wondering if this OWWM would also be a solid performer if refurbished. I've been told NO...but don't know why. Opinions welcomed.
