I designed this stand for the old Delta 24" scrollsaw that I grew up with. The other day I was thinking I need to go buy the oak to do this. Then my wife asked me to come look at some wood in her parents back garage. There's probably enough white oak there for this thing and a huge pile of very nice looking cherry. Her folks are gone and it sounds like I inherit the wood. I have to wait for the ground to dry out before I can get the wood but I should be all set.
FWIW, I plan to make a drawer case that will sit on the stretchers but that'll be a separate project.
