Bellows Needed.

[wm460]

After a long time sitting under my bench I pulled ny scroll saw out and found the bellows have perished.
It is a Timbercon 16" FSS16B, I contacted Timecon who cannot help me.

Hi wvm460 I cannot see the bellows from your photo.
But I've heard that the rubber gator (sometimes called Boot) for the cv joint on a car is a suitable replacement for some scroll saw bellows.
Something like this for example: http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/1x-UNIVERS...item27cc1740db

You could us a cheap aquarium air pump. They work and don't slow when you slow the speed of cutting.

Thanks for you answers, I have a couple aquarium air pums in the shed somewhere, I thought they might come in handy oneday.

Now where did I put them.

for Aquarium Pump. The bellows on my scroll saw was pathetic so I removed it and purchased a pump from the local Pet Barn for $15.

It works a treat....more blowing capacity. All I have to do is switch it on/off separately from the SS but I can live with that.

Ah Ha in the shed. I place where everything ends up. Including me.

I know that some people resort to using a fish tank pump as a blower. Worth a try?
