[[File:Excalibur EX21 Scroll Saw Image.jpg|thumb|Excalibur EX-21 Scroll Saw]]
  −
The Excalibur EX-21 Scroll Saw is a small variable speed electric saw. It operates similarly to a band saw, but uses a reciprocating blade instead of a loop. This reciprocation means the blade does not cut continuously and only on the down stroke. The thinness of the blade allows it to be turned in the work piece at an almost 90 degree angle, which allows the blade to track along fine detail and sharp lines. The blade can also be removed on either the top or bottom of the reciprocating arm which allows the blade to be inserted inside of a work piece without needing an entry cut, the only thing necessary is a small hole drilled through the material. There is a blade guard and a dust blower nozzle that both need to be adjust before a piece can be cut into the material.

There are several hazards you need to be aware of when using a scroll saw. 
 +
* Keep your fingers and hands away from the blade and all moving parts.
 +
* If a blade breaks or gets pulled from the holder turn off the machine and tell the supervisor. 
 +
* Always wear proper safety equipment to prevent injury.
 +
* Some woods can create toxic dust so be aware of what you are cutting. 
 +
* Hold onto material firmly as the blade will try to lift the material off the table. 
 +
* Use a brush to clear away chips and sawdust.
 +
* Allow the blade to do the cutting at its own speed. Don't force material into the blade.
 +
* Make sure the material hold down is correctly adjusted. The hold down should never impede the material movement and should barely sit above the material.

The scroll saw is simple machine with an oscillating blade. The thin shallow blade has a very narrow kerf and allows the user to cut fine details and sharp corners.  There are a variety of blades available for various types of materials and cuts. Some of the scroll saw uses include wood puzzle making, intarsia projects, and dovetail cutting. The blade can also be removed and inserted into a drilled hole to give access to the center of an island area in material to cutout the center of an "O" for example. A paper template with a design can be glued onto the top of a work piece and traced.
