stevecoco Posted October 20, 2009 Report Share Posted October 20, 2009 Only use a varga now, have been down your route for cheaper alternatives twice, wish I had bought the varga straight off, it would have saved money in the long run. Remenber cheap is not always the right answer. See if you can get a loan from your Bank.........lol. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vinny Posted October 31, 2009 Report Share Posted October 31, 2009 The varga saw range is the best - buy smart - buy once They are a swiss made machine so they are pricey as the exchange rate is not good at the moment - find someone that has a stock of them!! Try Pantograph Services 01132496161, very helpful and the best price at the time I bought one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thorpes Posted November 2, 2009 Report Share Posted November 2, 2009 We have had a Vaga sawfor a good few years after going down the cheep way of cutting sheet plastics and metals. But we have a problem with the pipe constantly blocking up. Anybody have this problem and is there any way of stopping this apart from unblocking it with a length of threaded bar?

They tend to block up more when the blade is blunt.. I use a henry hoover for suction, instead of the daft little bag that comes with the machine.
