Two New People Gourd Box Options!

Proxxon Jigsaws are Back in Stock!
Reg. $194.75, Just $179.95!

"Well, after spending nearly $500 on various power saws to cut open my Welburn Gourds, I finally gave in and purchased a Proxxon Mini Saw. I'm in love. It is super wonderful and small enough to offer me all the creative flexibility I desire. The professional look of my gourds improved 200 percent. Going to try the paints next...I'm sold. Thank you!" - Gayle Renfro

The Proxxon Jigsaw stands up to heavy cutting and is the perfect choice when you want to do cuts without removing too much gourd, such as when making lidded vessels.

Includes a FREE pack of jig saw blades and a FREE foot pedal! Reg. $215.65, Just $179.95! (Supplies limited)

Shown here: This elegant lidded gourd by Heidi Anne Sanger has a thin scalloped cut, which makes the cut line nearly invisible when the lid is on; this is the type of cut you get when using the Proxxon Super Jigsaw!

The perfect tool for making gourds with lids, intricate cut-outs, and more!
