Got her torn down and lubed up last weekend.....Got her bolted down and desk figured out yesterday......so today after yard work, I had some time to make my Beautiful Bride and Princess Daughter some wall hangers.

My wife said I used to look at her, the same way I'm looking at my new baby.....lol

Wow! Everything looks great. You have your saw on a much steeper angle than I have mine. But, I like your whole set up.

Very cool! I am a bit jealous of the green grass in your yard.

I really like the arrows, who's patterns are they?

 

The metal arrows my wife picked up at one of the hobby shops a fews weeks ago and asked if I'd hang them. I did like any of the options I had to hang them, didn't want to be able to see any of the hanger material, so I scroll out the wood. I traced the wood out with a 1/4" washer as a spacer. Got the idea with the washer from a youtube video by Charles Dearing.

PS....the grass is not were I'd like to be right now, when its up and going it's has to be cut a least every five days........although I may need to rethink it this year. All four of the kids will be in college and that leaves only me to do all the yard work, lol.

Looking good. I like the setup you did. Like your choice of beverage too, had a few of those last night. 

Yuengling Lager is by far is the best beer I have ever had and that says a lot coming from a die hard "Shiner Bock" drinker. Tried it approx 7 years ago up in New York at Cooperstown when one of my son's was invited to play in a select baseball tournament near the Baseball HOF. We cant get Yuengling here in Texas (although they have starting selling it in Louisiana), so I have some friends from my side / second job that travel all over the US and they usually bring me a case or two.

My son lives in Corpus Christi so when we go down to visit I drink DOS XX. Still seems really strange going to grocery store and buying beer and stuff down there. Hoping to visit again in 2 years.

Is there any advantage to working on a angle like the setup you have?

I think it's a little more ergonomically friendly.  Stay hunched over a scroll saw for extended periods of time and you look for small improvements that relieve some of the tension in your back, neck, shoulders and wrists.  It makes a difference for some.  I know I like mine better tilted.
