Questions for you RBI Hawk 216 owners

I just got one from CL for $75.00. Mine was almost brand new. I emailed the compny and they sent me a manual and their new price list for parts.

Now this is almost the same question I have been going to ask. I have a 22” Foley Belsaw scrool saw, the same thing HF sold up untill reciently and other companies sold also. I too was wondering if there was a way to up grade to a variable speed motor and I was wondering if there were better blade holders/keepers that I could buy or build. I want a faster, better way to do blade rethreading in those multiple hole cut out projects. and of course slower speed would be helpful too. Ideas, thoughts, pictures, sketches, web sites all are welcome.

You may want to try asking over at scrollsaw.com. But, I tried asking about my saw over there and only got one answer. There is another guy named Mike he has a scrollsaw site but forgot his site name.
