Congrats on the new toy.  I don't know how any scroller can get by without a planer.

I use the coat hanger with bent paper clips to better separate them for drying.

That is a neat pattern and you did a nice job with it.  She should love it.

I have had my local lumber yard order the BB for me.  This works if you can use full sheets.

For over 10 years, I had my shop in the basement with the water heater and gas furnace.  During that time I did a lot of woodwork from that shop.  It was an oversized one car garage so when the weather was nice could open the garage door but it was enclosed all winter.  During that time I used a table saw, 2 bandsaws, 2 drillpresses, 6" belt sander as well as several palm sanders, planer, several routers and multiple scroll saws.  During all that time I never used any type of dust collection as it served to soften and insulate the concrete floor and never had a problem.

You can do the same without the miters if you rotate the overlap in the second layer.

I guess I am lucky as my Weimaraner has never had a problem about going outside.  He will even wake me up if he needs to go during the night by running between the bed and the door.  At 110 lbs, that makes enough noise to get me up.  He would never go into a crate but has his place on one side of the bed.  He has food available whenever he wants and also gets 1/2 a slice of bacon and an egg every morning and a hotdog rolled in a slice of bread every evening.  He especially likes it with hot mustard.  The vet said something about his weight but since he maintains a constant weight decided it was ok.
I got one of those magnetic screens for the patio door so he can go during the day when he needs to.  Have to close the door at night as had unwelcome company.   Had a mouse get in but he caught it for me.

I either wrap the stack with painters tape or else shoot brads in the waste area.

I'm not familiar with that saw but if anyone would know, it would be Rick at Rick's Scrollsaw.
