This is my latest scroll saw project:
Today I found a frame for it that my wife gave me. The picture was a around 1/4" wide to fit in the frame. So I put it on the table saw to shave some off both sides to get to the frame size. You know where this is going, don't you?? Boom shrapnel flying everywhere!! Not really sure what happen but it must have been my fault! I didn't say one bad word, my only thought was, "well I guess I get to scroll that one again!" Not really total loss. I stacked two pieces of 1/4" when I did it so I have another. I have just gone to the trouble to sand, clean up and put a finish on this one.
By the way I went a little crazy a few weeks ago and bought this:
It is a Hegner, German made. I'm old and getting goofy. My wife is getting worse, she didn't even get angry. Took all the fun out of it!! This is a great saw, if I ever figure it out. Well you do need a back up saw.
