What has Doug been up to lately?

It is coming along nicely.


Thank you so much for doing it for me.


We’re not going with original wheels …


Just getting it put back together …


Smoothed out …


Puttied …


Primed and painted.

The Second Project ...

Another Scroll Saw project!!!

This was his second one.


This one has been done for a little while.
It's awaiting either stain or a paint job.  
He hasn't decided for sure yet.

It measures 17 x 14 inches 

He plans to make a hen or two and some chicks to go with it.
They will be yard ornaments when they are all finished.

It is so fun to see what he comes up with next.


He is already working on his next project ...
no ...
it is not a chicken or rooster.

(wink)


Doug says, "Life is better when you do something fun!"


Until next time ...

Let the sawdust fly!

Buzz ya later!

First Project with the Scroll Saw


The first project with the new scroll saw.

A weather vane rooster!

First he drew it out on a piece of paper.

Then he headed back to the shop room and sat down at the saw.



I heard the buzzing of the saw ...

My nose felt the tickle of sawdust in the air ...

And then this is what emerged.

I like it!

Now it just needs to be painted or stained.


Until next time ...

Let the sawdust fly!

Buzz ya later!

Welcome to Doug-E's Wood Shop


Welcome to Doug-E's page and blog!

This page is all about the Scroll Saw!




It's about what's being made ...
And what's going to be next ...



It's about letting the sawdust fly ...
And buzzin' around the saw!



There are some projects in the works and we will be sharing them with you soon!
It's a great way to spend some time relaxing ...
The smell of the wood and sawdust ...
The sawdust tickling your nose ...
Feeling the vibration of the saw through the wood with your finger tips ...
Watching your intent come into reality ...
Seeing your project when it's done ...
Then the painting and staining!

Until next time ...

Let the sawdust fly!

Buzz ya later!
