Agreed - and those treadle fretsaws were all the rage in the 1950's. It
even says 'Hobbies' on it - I grew up reading old Hobbies annuals in the
70's and donated one of those fretsaws to a wood recycling charity after
my Dad died.


Hobbies (not to be confused with Hobby's) is still going strong. I have
some of their 0 gauge building plans here, somewhere.


I bought some tools off them last month.
