I am working on a very large dollhouse, originally for grand daughters but they may not have enough room for it. I am finihing up shingles on the roof, and putting clapboard siding on.

I have a small room I carved out of the wife's laundry room (was 6' 6" x 14'). She went away for a weekend and I added a wall and door to into the garage. It is about 6'6" x 6'. If I need more room to scroll I move the car out of the garage and move it there. I am planning to build a small workshop in the future. Probally will be too small only 10' x 12' but will be a good start.

As a teenager I started woodworking in a neighbor’s small shop. That combined with early drafting work, a short career as a professional model maker, and an interest in all woodworking disciplines were useful ingredients that led me to woodworking later in life. I have several small woodworking tools (bench top table saw, bandsaw, drill press,scroll saw, disk and belt sanders, etc.) and a very limited amount of space for them to occupy, however I especially enjoy making things with my scroll saw. Scroll sawing and woodworking are primarily a hobby for me. I enjoy creating woodworking projects for fun and to sell. I make things as gifts and a few items to sell so I can purchase additional wood, supplies, plans and patterns. I like to create a wide variety of woodcraft projects ranging from craft fair novelties, wooden toys, scroll sawn portraits, intarsia, fretwork, ornaments, baskets, boxes, folk art items, puzzles, 3d compound saw items, and scroll saw segmentation. With a little encouragement from others who have appreciated the things I have created in wood, and with more than a little patience, I now spend many evenings and weekends crafting woodworking projects in my garage workshop located in Martinez, California.

I have a Hegner 18". I do not have a shop so it shares space in garage with autos. I only get to scroll on weekends.
