Barnes Velocipede Scroll Saw No. 2

This machine has about the same capacity as the No. 7 Scroll Saw, the warranty as to what that machine will do applying equally to it, but this is preferred by many on account of the velocipede foot power, and having the boring attachment to open for inside work.

• The swing around the blade, under the arm, is 24 inches.
• The length of the blade is 7 inches.
• The table and arms are made of hard maple.
• The frame is made of cast iron.
• The balance and drive wheels run on steel arbors.
• The machine weighs 90 pounds.
• Boxed, ready for shipment, it weighs 130 pounds.
• We include 1 dozen blades with each machine.

• The boring attachment can be furnished at any time, if not desired when ordering the machine.
• One 3/16 bit is included with the boring attachment.
