Mike (The Flying Dutchman) Moorlach

Many of you know Mike. For those who don't he is the man behind Mike's Workshop. Mike has sold the Flying Dutchman scroll saw blades to many thousands of scrollers in the U.S. and Canada. For years he has been my go to source for blades and great service. He has also been the source I recommend to my readers when they want a high quality scroll saw blade. I also considered Mike a friend. Of course most of Mike's customers considered him their friend. That's how Mike ran his business.

Mike sold his business yesterday. Mike has decided to retire early and live the good life. Mike is 84 years young. 

I have known for quite some time that he was trying to sell the business but I honestly hoped he would keep going forever. It's mixed emotions. I am thrilled he will be able to enjoy his retirement but I will very much miss dealing with Mike.

Mike sold his business to The Wooden Teddy Bear. I know they are working right now to get the transition over as soon as possible. When I get more details I will pass them along.  

Congratulations Mike. You are a true gentleman. I am proud to have worked with you over the years. I wish you the very best of luck in your retirement.

There are 26 projects – all new patterns, not available on my website. Included are some easy freestanding Easter bunnies, and stand-up projects that spell Mom, Mum, and Dad for the beginner.
