Have you ever taken a week off work and had all kinds of plans to get things done. That was my goal last week. I wanted to build a few nice projects for the blog. I wanted to complete several more videos for the Scroll Saw School section. I wanted to clean my shop. I got zero done. You know What? That's exactly what I needed. Sometimes you just have to walk away from a hobby for a while.
Luckily I went to the Woodland Art Festival in Lexington this weekend and that always gets me excited again. A local scroll saw artist by the name of Mick Shambro was there. He does some really fine work. He also presents his work beautifully. He has a few nice patterns for sale on his website.
Another woodworking friend of mine was there with his wooden gear clocks. Keith Chambers designs and builds the most beautiful clocks I have seen. He was actually my inspiration to build out my shop and start the blog. He is one of the most dedicated craftsman I know.
There were many other fine artist there and the show was a lot of fun to attend. I always come away from these shows wanting to get back in my shop. Hopefully I can carry that motivation over to next week and actually get something done. :)

Think Safety
Remember to keep the safety of yourself and others in your work shop in your thoughts at all times. Always wear eye and ear protection. Follow all the manufactures warnings that came with your power tools. If I demonstrate something on this web site that you don't feel is safe, don't do it. Your safety is your responsibility. Fingers are handy things, try to keep all of them.
