Think I figured out the picture thing...
News: Had a couple issues with the forum today. 1/19/2017. I believe I have them corrected now. Let me know if you have any trouble. Thanks.

Introduce Yourself. / Re: Newbie from Wisconsin

Thanks for the welcome! Good information, I hope you don't mind me picking your brain as I progress. What you are doing sounds exactly like what I want to be doing. I have been making things for family & friends for years, so I have about 40 years of woodworking experience. But now I would rather just make what I want and see if it sells, rather than make things on a commission basis. Or make gifts. It is what it is, and they either like it or don't. But at least I have fun making the item and don't have to worry about overly picky (and cheap!) people ...
Any idea where I can find info on how to post pictures?

Hi All,
I have been lurking for a while, enjoying the forum and the other connected websites, and decided to join. New to the scroll saw, but have used it before on a couple of projects. I am currently building a stand with a built in seat (adjustable) and will post a pic of it when it's finished. (Not sure how to do that)
My eventual goal is to start a toy making business to supplement our income in retirement. I am about 6-10 years away (Lord willing) so I thought I would get started now and practice for the children in our family.
I have a Craftsman 16" variable speed saw that I bought a couple of years ago. (Already saving for an upgrade) It takes pin and pinless blades, and I have an ample supply of Olsen blades on hand. I also have some simple patterns to practice on for a set of cars. I am really interested in building toy train sets, trying my hand at craft fairs and gift shops.
Thanks in advance for the welcome and I am looking forward to participating and posting stupid questions. :-)
