"Ordered mini jigsaw blades, easy transaction, they arrived quickly and work great, thanks so much. Will buy again soon." - Pam C.

GourdMaster™ Jigsaw Blades are designed to fit most mini jigsaws, including the Proxxon™ Super Jigsaw SS 115/E, the Minicraft Precision Jigsaw and the Gourd Saw.

Gourd leaf bowl by Mary Segreto. The small blade of the Proxxon Mini Jigsaw is perfect for making intricate cuts like those shown in this gourd.

GourdMaster™ Jigsaw Blades are made from high quality steel so they will stand up to the heavy cutting required for our thick-shelled gourds!

They leave a smooth, clean cut and the thin design also makes them ideal for cutting intricate designs that have tight curves.

The Super Jigsaw is perfect for cutting in tight corners like these leaves!

A pop-up window will appear once your order reaches $49, and you will be allowed to add your FREE Jigsaw Blades. See our 'Customer Favorites' page to start shopping:

"I just wanted to take this time to let you know how excited and pumped I am. This is the first time that I have used the transparent dies and I am so amazed at the difference in my colors. It's brought a spark back into my heels and a whole lot of spark into my gourd work. Thank you for having the quality of products that you do and I hope you can keep up with the demands. Thanks for always being there and having the quality that I trust in." - Willie Yepez

With GourdMaster Transparent Acrylics you get the rich colors and work-ability you might find in an acrylic paint, combined with the wonderful, semi-transparent look of an ink dye. It's like having the best of both worlds!

Being pigment based, they are more viscous than Ink Dye so you can actually apply them with a paint brush and the color stays where you put it without bleeding!

Letters from Customers

"Hello, I just received the GourdMaster Pro Carver II yesterday – couldn’t wait to try it out – I love it!! I’ve been using the Dremel which has been great, but there’s something about the Pro – so quiet, and the handpiece is much more comfortable, low vibration – it was like carving through butter! I wish I lived closer to a gourd farm - not any in my area - Connecticut Thanks, Kathy"

***************************

"I only started working with gourds a year ago. I first bought a Dremel but decided for me that it was harder to use and too much vibration so I bought the Pro Carver from Welburn. It has made a big difference in carving and I love the Pro Carver!" -Peggy J.

***************************

"OHMIGOSH! I just unboxed my new Pro Carver II and even though it’s late, I decided to give it a 5 minute test run.
Let me say, I was happy when I went from a Dremel to the Proxxon. But there is a night and day difference with the Pro Carver! The hand piece fits my hand so much better, it’s lighter and I can barely feel the vibration!! After carving a couple hours with the Proxxon, my hand ends up tingling afterwards. I don’t anticipate that happening with the ProCarver based on what I just felt. Halllelujah! My hand, joints and titanium shoulder are going to be sooo happy!
I can’t wait to wake up tomorrow and start carving!" - Lori Smith
