Hello all,

I just signed up and wanted to introduce myself to everyone.  My name is Mickey, and I just got my first scroll saw last year.  I have a nice little workshop set up, and my scroll saw is at the center of just about every project that comes through the place.

Just three weeks ago, I opened a store on Etsy, and have already sold my first piece.  It was the "Nose" eye glasses holder that Steve was so kind to load into his free pattern catalog.  I actually just cut the piece today, and am waiting on the glue to dry so that I may stain it and get it sent off this week.

My main focus on the scroll saw is Christmas ornaments.  I think they make a perfect gift for all those extended family members whom you always want to buy something for, but never have enough in the budget.  Cutting ornaments is also how I keep those gifts personal.  You can find a pattern for just about any interest anyone would have.

I live in a small town in southwest Virginia.  I'm married, and have two young daughters.  The daughters keep my scroll saw quiet busy with requests for anything cat related. 

I think that's enough about me for now.  I hope to be able to remain active, as I love idea of mingling folks with the same interests.

Sincerely,
Mickey Yarber
