A most heinous act was commited against children today, a gunman killed at least 26 people with at least 18 of the children at Sandy Hook Elementary School in Newtown, Conn..  A moment of reflection and prayer for those that have been affected by this; especially at this time of year.  No motive is yet known the gunman was found dead (shot, by someone ).

General Scroll Saw Talk / Great Deal

« on: October 31, 2012, 08:14:49 pm »

Tonight I purchased a cedar chest ( 8 foot x 10 foot x 7 foot x 1.4 thick ).  Yes they paneled a whole room with cedar; walls and ceiling.  I got the whole thing for just $40. It will take me a little while do disassemble it into useful pieces but doable.  Each piece is tongue and groove and is 2 inches wide and 1/4 inch thick and various lengths from 1 foot to 3 feet.  Looks like I am going to be making a LOT of cedar things in the near future;)
