This is incredible. Also, just yesterday I was asking my dad what this weird old power tool in his shed was and he said it was a scroll saw that came with the house (along with some other old power tools). I'll have to see if it runs still.

Does he sell them? That’s beautiful work.

They have an annual sale at the senior's apartments he lives in. What he hasn't given away, he sells there. Profits go to apartment activities.

Old people are so skilled at woodwork. I don't know any younger people who are into it. I hope those skills don't vanish with the olher generation.

Yet again, amazing work.

That is excellent scrollwork.
