Thanks for the replies. I like to test myself. 

Rockytime.......I used to work in a Diesel engine manufacturing company. I was in Q.C. I would take a sample of fuel pumps from the suppliers, mount them on a test rig and check them. Mainly for fuel delivery.....smoke emissions etc.

i had to take early retirement from work due to foot problems.

i bought a turning lathe and made pens, bowls, clocks etc. 

I have now graduated to a scrollsaw. Enjoying it very much.

Here is a picture of my turning.  750 segments. Stands about 12” tall.

Very slow job making those!

That is quite a project You are one talented person. I can't wait to see what you are doing with your scroll saw in the future too.
