preprius Posted December 17, 2020 Report Share Posted December 17, 2020 My name is Mark. During lockdown I can work from home. So I'm not retired yet. But I do have more time to play with tools. I finally looked at my scroll saw and asked when was the last time I played with that? So I decided to re-learn scolling and get better at it. So I found this place (Village) and can read great lessons learned and tips. I'm amazed at the quality of work and projects that I see here. Tools: I don't have laser or 3D printer. I do not have band saw. I do have drill press and have done some wood turning using drill press accessory. Cut off miter power saw, and power hand tools. Oh and a router table. All tools are entry level. Scroll saw is Porter Cable from Lowes. Right before lockdown I started G scale (garden) model railroads. So I have some ideas of making my own train cars with scroll saw. I turned some wood for barrels for train cargo. I can print some labels and detail some brand names for cars. Here is 1 minute video of my unique locomotive.
