Rockwell Blade Runner

Anybody seen one of these yet?  It's like a scroll saw that uses jig saw blades. I thought that it might work good for cutting out toneboards against the jig surface.

You won't get money rich in this hobby.  The richness is in the culture, the craft, the friends you meet along the way, and being able to call in a wary game animal with a call that you made with your own hands.

These showed up about a year ago and several people tried them. The problem with them was you couldn't hold your jig still because of the up and down movement of the blade. I would stay away from them.........

I have one of these, they ok for cutting tone boards but there is no guide for the blade and it tends to flex wherever it pleases. This will work but a bandsaw is much better served for toneboards.
