Dremel Moto-Saw

I have a scroll saw in my workshop but find it a mission to get out and set up. It's bulky, noisy and more trouble than it's worth. This nifty little tool, on the other hand, looks quick and easy to set up and I can use it anywhere. The Dremel Moto-Saw is due for launch in January 2013, so too late for my Christmas List, but I will be putting some cash aside and be the first one in the store to get mine...!
