jeffflan Posted July 17, 2009 Report Share Posted July 17, 2009 Retired 2005. Purchased a Hegner (copy) scrollsaw a few months ago to make whirligigs, after reading 'The New Scroll Saw Handbook' by Patrick Spielman and a few Anders Lunde publications. Obtain most of my wood from circa 1950's abandoned furniture, draws etc. Added a 7" 'Daylight' brand magnifying light to the saw bench. Good setup. Gardening, home maintenance, and travel occupy most of my time. Nova Scotia and Newfoundland next month, followed by Glacier NP, Boise and Ranier NP before the next northern autumn. Life is good. Don't waste day. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Travis Posted July 17, 2009 Report Share Posted July 17, 2009 Hi Jeff. Welcome to the Village. We're glad you found us. Sounds like you're making the most of your retirement. I love to travel too. Looks like you have a lot of great destinations planned. I live in central MT, so it sounds like you'll be in my neck of the woods soon enough. I haven't been to Glacier in years. Very pretty, though. You should consider Yellowstone too, since you'll be around Glacier and Idaho. I really like Yellowstone. Anyway, welcome aboard. I look forward to seeing some of your work. You can set up a User Gallery (you can find a [tut]tutorial here[/tut] to show off a bit. We love to see other's work. Jump on in and have some fun!
