  5. I enjoy these shows. I enjoy talking to the customers. I don't do many per year this year it only 5. Scroll saw is something that there is vey seldom any compaction, I had one show this year with a scroll saw compaction and I sold $260 at it. I have don production work in a machine shop all my working life so that isn't a problem. I did lighted Christmas trees this year and no body had ever seen them before and I had a few single items at my booth.I enjoy it.
  6. I bought a new saw and before I ever made a cut on it I removes the hold down. I have been scrolling off and on for the last 30years and have never got a nick from the Scrolls saw. Now a table saw is a different story I removed half a thumb on it.
