I'm Back

[don watson]

Hello All,

It's Don Watson from Fife, Scotland and I'm back. I have had some problems but am getting back to working on a scrollsaw. I have the Axminster machine and it is a big beast that demands to be used. Hope to join in again, albeit very slowly. I have just received an email from Travis and I am glad I am still remembered here, in fact I have received a second mail from Travis welcoming me back as I am not a robot. As I said it has been a difficult journey back to some health and I can get out to the workshop now. I had my friend from Kirkcaldy up this morning to tidy the workshop and dump a lot of the rubbish. He managed to site the scroll saw in an ideal position and make a table for the Laser engraving/cutting machine that I hope to receive in the next couple of weeks, something new to learn at 86 years old ?? I hope to catch up with you all soon.

regards

don watson

Thanks Marg,

I am glad to get some time outside now. I have a new laser cutting/engraving machine on order so I hope to get to grips with that soon.

Thanks Scrappile I am already lost to the dark side and am waiting on a new laser cutting/engraving machine to be delivered. I have a friend from the Kirkcaldy Men's Shed comes to visit on a Thursday and at the moment we have decided to build a model wooden fishing boat that we have plans for.

Welcome back, friend! Health always comes before scroll saw. Just look it up in the dictionary. Hope to see some more of your work, scrolling or laser.
