Title: A new beginning
Post by: stephshubby on October 17, 2011, 12:31:09 am

My name is Bo Mitchell. I have just recently retired as a Staff Sergeant from the army do to injuries. I spent 10 years in the army as an MP and would do it all over again. After being retired I have been looking for a new hobby (so has the wife haha). A good friend of mine who is also a member here (cajunmp1980) brought over his new scroll saw yesterday for me to try out. After a few cuts I went  today and bought the entry level craftsman 16". Thanks to this site I have a place to unload questions lol and one day hope to be able to answer questions for another person new to the craft.
