    Cool hey from USA

    I've been away from woodworking about 5 yrs. I had a full shop all the best equipment I could afford but due to a major lifechange I had to sell everything except some hand power tools. Now I'm settled down somewhat and got the itch again.I bought a bench drill press, small 10" table saw, a router table and just bought a Shopmate scrollsaw all off Craigslist.My idea is do scrollsawing and sell at craft shows as I build up stock don't expect to get rich just support my scrollsawing.

    G'Day & Welcome "Down Under" Mike,
    Where abouts in the USA do you hail from??
    You'll find a heap of helpful & knowledgeable blokes & ladies on the forum and for most very willing to assist.
    Make sure you show off your handiwork as everyone loves a photo, especially WIP photos with build notes.
    Enjoy the forum.
    Enjoy your woodwork.
    Cheers for "On Top Down Under" Crowie

    PS - Don't forget "garage sales" and "yard sales" to replenish your tools & machinery stocks......
