Another DIY scroll saw build video:

Here is a short video I found on YouTube. I don't recommend building your own scroll saw for fret work but I love watching people build things from scratch. Especially when their maker skills are good. This young man is talented and creative. It's a pretty basic scroll saw made completely from metal. These DIY machines are usually made from wood so this is a little different.  

I have not checked out the rest of his videos but he may be someone to subscribe to if you like this kind of stuff.

Fitbit Blaze Smart Fitness Watch, Black, Silver, Large (US Version)

Since I retired I have been trying to get my health back in order. I'm down about 30 lbs and my diabetic numbers are getting slowly better.

My wife bought me a Fitbit Blaze and I really like it. One thing I have been working on is my sleep. I am terrible at getting the right amount of sleep. I tend to just keep working through the night. Sometimes I will only sleep 2 or 3 hours. Using the Fitbit to monitor my sleep helps keep me on track for at least 6 or 7 hours a night. The sleep tracking has been extremely accurate for me even showing the bathroom trips during the night.

Every hour it reminds you that you need to get up and move. That is helpful when you sit in fron of a computer all day like I do. Another neat feature of this model is that you can attach it to your email and it gives you a synapse of your emails when they come in.

If you want a little help getting more fit this might be a help for you also.

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.
