Title: Hello From Texas
Post by: Jim Finn on June 12, 2011, 11:56:30 am: Hello,
My name is Jim ...and I am a scroll sawyer.
I live in Lubbock Texas and have a small woodworking workshop in my garage. I have two Hegner scroll saws beside other wood working tools and enjoy playing with them about 35 hours a week. I am a retired sheet metal worker but now I make sawdust most days. I have made a LOT of toys with my scroll saw. I have done a few pieces of intarsia and lately I have been making lots of cedar boxes with inlayed images in the lids. I have made some of the Steve good projects too. (Flowers etc.)
I sell my woodworking projects at street-craft fairs here, about twice a month. I look forward to getting more ideas and inspiration in this forum

I hope you saw your own - and not talking others into having your fun!

We are always interested in good ideas - our toys section might need some input.

Have fun!
