Title: Hello from across the pond
Post by: megga on February 02, 2014, 09:04:10 am

Hello all, i'm a middle aged man still going through my first childhood ;D I'm from Melton mowbray (pork pie and stilton cheese heven, hmmmm) in England.
I came across Steve Good on you tube around 1 1/2 -2 years ago, life was simple then, just working in my garage, happy on my motor bikes. But seeing his stuff, i got my first scroll saw, a cheep chinese one. Well i needed a saw to cut the big things up, so i had to buy a band saw, then a few more bits and bobs. My bikes covered in sawdust, i had no choice but to buid a new man cave, and now its just out of controll lol.
Just got my FIRST decent scroll saw  ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D
Now to try and get up to some of your levels, some of the work that i have seen on this site is just amazing
(intarsia "the angle on a bench" wow)
