A few years ago, some teenage kid had rigged up an old Scroll Saw with a
burned out motor to an old tredle sewing machine base. He had maybe $10 in
it (mostly for new blades). He powered the tredle which powered the scroll
saw by way of a round belt.
He was going to make Christmas ornaments, gadgets, and thing-a-ma-doodles to
sell and earn his college money from it.
It cut up a storm.
Smart kid.
