When I came in to the office this past Friday after being in meetings most of the morning, I immediately noticed that there was something in the middle of the floor. I turned on the light and discovered that a scroll saw was sitting right there in my way - just as somebody had put a trap out for me to trip over. I did not at first recognize the outline of this particular machine so I started looking for a tag. It did not take long to see that it was a Duro machine, serial number A886 MD.

I had no idea where the saw came from or why it was in my office so I walked up front and asked my secretary if she knew the deal was. She then told me the story. It went something like this:

"Somebody came in the office a little while ago and wanted to see you. I told them you were not in. They then asked if you might want a scroll saw. I told them that that I had no idea. They told me that they saw the article in the paper a week or so ago that you had made the Academic Mace for the college and figured you must be a woodworker. They had this saw in their garage that had been there a long time and wanted to get rid of it. So they brought it up here and left it in your office."

So, now I am the proud owner of a Duro Scroll Saw. We will see what happens to it. I have not tried to fire her up yet but a quick inspection looks good - I think that it will be pretty much plug and play. I started to try her out today but everything that I have touched today has messed up so I left the shop and decided to tackle it on tomorrow. We will see how she goes...
