Our last scroll saw challenge, it was fun to see where we started and where we are now. It was a great reminder that we were all newbies once-upon-a-time.

I got a Delta 40-560 a few months ago and my boys really got into scrolling. I just ordered an upgrade a 40-694 because they will enjoy using a better saw as much as me. Hope to do some great projects this year with the father son shop time.
