MJP: I am a pastor of an evangelical church in South Jersey. In my free time I enjoy working with wood. More than 20 years ago my wife bought me my first scrollsaw as an anniversary present. It sat on the shelf for more than a year before I started to cut and it has been non-stop ever since. I am not really what you would call "artistic" or "gifted" when it comes to this kind of work, so my hope is that this blog will inspire others to give it a try. The start-up is fairly easy and not too expensive ... and I think you'll be pleasantly surprised by what you can do!
