    hi, everyone i have not posted on here for a long while, and i missed everyone. but now i plan on staying in touch. i had my first craft show this weekend, and it was a blast, we did ok on the sales part of it, but i loved the way most people react, to seeing the things that i have cut out. and also the show was in my home town, and i seen alot of old friends that i have not seen in years. and it was fun spending time with my wife. well i look foward to catching up with the people on here that i know, and getting to know all of the new folks on here.

    hi everyone, i hope you are all doing fine. i have a question, first of all i have a floor , full size drill press, and for some time now i have been wanting something smaller to drill the many holes , we need for scroll saw work. i know they make bench top drill press but they all have the same huge motor, and top. so do they make a hobby size drill press? i know they make a drill press that you can mount a drill in, but before i buy that i want to make sure there is not something better. thanks

    i have never went to a craft show, but next month , i will have some of my stuff in a show. a friend of my wife seen some of my stuff, and wants me to put my stuff with hers. so i have been cutting a little bit of everything, because i have no idea what will sale. and i dont know how much to charge for my stuff. but i think travis was talking about etsy, so i will take a look and see what crafts are going for, than charge less.

    i would like a wood lathe, and my son,and, or daughter to take an intrest in woodworking, and we could build something together. oh, and a new work bench.

    i like that very much, where did you find the pattern? or did you make the pattern?

    hi travis, i think it depends on the saw, my first saw the blade was back about 8" from the front of the bed, and i had it lower so i could get close enough to see the blade, and lines. but my excalibur, the blade is about 3" back from the front of the bed, so i have this one higher, and im closer to the blade. i know my wife does not like it being that high, she would rather use my old saw , because she is used to the way it cuts.

    thanks for all the nice words, everyone. the top looks even better now i put 2 more coats of finish on it. thanks again, jim

    i started out with a hitachi, and i wore the switch out in 3 weeks, then i took it back to lowes and got another one, then i knew i needed another one, because my wife wanted to use it, as much as i wanted to. then i had some good luck, seen a ad for a 20" excalibur, it is 5 years old, anyway got it with a stand for 130.00 and it works great. i dont even use the hitachi anymore. but i have a backup if i need one.

    i keep my saw in my son's old bedroom, he moved out, so now i have a place to work year around, i have a shop in the garage, that i work in when its a nice day, that means a few days in the spring, and fall. good question travis.
