Greetings,  mikey here. I am 4 years into retirement interested in trying to make some wood stuff. Slowly filling my side of the garage up with saws, drill press, work bench etc. I'm to the point that I need to either start parking outside or move our bikes and trikes out back under a tarp so I can spread things out and play. My grandad  had a furniture  upholstery shop where he also  made some jigsaw puzzles and used to rent them out to people for a few cents way back when.  I remember putting those puzzles together as a kid. He used a delta jigsaw?  to cut out the puzzles. It is a big cast iron C shaped saw that has a spring loaded plunger up top that you move to tension the blade)  My little brother has the saw now.  Anyway, looking forward to learning some new skills and maybe making a puzzle of my own someday.
Stay safe
