Thanks rjent. I think it will be home for my scroll saw on the left and jigsaw on the right.

Rosemary is beautiful! You do nice work! If the two uses are bandsaw and jig saw, why leave the carriage on?

Won't you have to reverse the machine for the jig saw?

Greenie, Grayling, SS stand alone BS and BS SPT, jointer and belt sander, 3 Ers with Speed Changers. I think those 3 cover my ER needs, and space for them. :)

The jig saw can be driven from either end. No need for reverse. The blade goes up and down so motor direction does not matter.

Rosemary is sweet gal. Good looking, too.
It's an added bonus that she's ambidextrous.
