oh how I love the smell of new tools



I went to home depot with David the other day. He works as a carpenter and does other stuff on the side so he almost lives at that place. But I love that he always finds good deals for me and he knows a ton about tools. He spotted this awesome scroll saw for me as he knows I've been wanting to make nice shapes out of this tiger wood and birds eye maple I bought and then bezel set them. The saw was under $100 so I jumped on it. Now I just have to figure out where to fit it in the studio :o)

  3. LOL he made me promise to wait with using it until he has shown me what to do. I think he's worried that I will cut my fingers off.. And he's probably right.. I tend to go for things without knowing exactly what you are supposed to do...

I treasure your words and the fact that you are
taking the time to share them with me.
Please forgive me if I don't respond personally to you.
I always try but sometimes time just flies away!
