I call it wood block. It’s sort of like writer’s block. I get it often. Sometimes going to buy a new tool works for me. I’m not talking nothing that’ll break the bank. A few weeks ago I got wood block. I went to the hardware store. I done some “window” shopping. I bought a new tape measure and some carpenter’s pencils. I came back to the shop a new man.
I now one thing that may be bothering you if you haven’t already figured it out. You’re a scroller. A scroller can’t function properly without a scroll saw in the shop. I’m serious. I founf that out last time I was without a scroll saw. Without a scroll saw in the shop, nothing, and I mean NOTHING worked out right. Not even projects that didn’t even require a scroll saw. So now days I always have more than one scroll saw in the shop. I don’t mean rush out and buy an expensive second saw. Start looking for a cheap used one though. A scroller has to have a scroll saw close by. Without it, all the karma gets out of whack and nothing else in the shop runs well either.
