Making Internal Cuts 

Unclamp the upper portion of the blade and pull it through

the workpiece and table opening. Reinsert the blade through

the table and pre-drilled hole (3/32

dia.) in the workpiece and 

re-install the blade following the procedures above.

Attaching Scroll Saw Blade Fixture Block (Optional):

The scroll saw blade fixture block can be attached to your saw 
or table. The top of the fixture should not rise above the table
surface or it will interfere with the workpiece to be cut.

1. Hold the fixture tightly against the flange of the left or right
side of the table (use a “C” clamp if available) and mark hole
location with center punch, small drill, or other marking device.

2. Using a 7/32

machinist drill, carefully drill the two holes

through the flange of base using intermittent pressure. 

3 Place the #12-24 x 1

screws through the holes and attach 

the #12 x 24 hex nuts on the opposite side of the flange or base.

4. Place the fixture on top of the screw’s threads and tighten to
secure the fixture against the flange or base.
