    I got a new toy. A scroll saw. Decided it could be useful for the fine
    work on the hidden drawers in my band saw boxes. Of course, I bought
    it before I had a place to put it.....big surprise. So, in my tiny shop, space has
    to be maximized. I was just about to build a new table for my planer...so
    decided to build one for both. Lots of plans on the internet for the
    fliptop cabinet. So far, very pleased w/the effort.

    Finally got the drawers built. Because I had to make the cabinet long enough
    for the scroll saw, I have a drawer on each side. One for SS stuff and one for planer stuff.

    ..so the scroll saw things really has me.
    ...and once again, I enjoy the design/build of stuff for my shop, I think,
    more than making the stuff w/the new tools.....
    Any whooo....scrollers need lots of blades.
    Amazing how many kinds of blades there are.
    So I made blade box. Plastic test tubes, 1/4" plywood, plexiglass sliding top.
