About me.....

I have been scrolling for about two years now. It all started with a little Delta scroll saw my wife purchased at a local hardware store for my birthday. Since that day I now have a Hawk 226 scroll saw, 2 drill presses, half a dozen sanders, a joiner, a planer, table saw, and am currently working on a bandsaw that can cut material 12 or so inches thick.
My wife thinks its an obsession. I think I must agree.
I started out making small projects from various publications but soon lost interest in that and began making custom portraits.

What a wonderful collection of talent and history we have here.
I think the forum is a great place to exchange ideas and advice.
If there is one more thing I would like to see it would be a scrollsaw picnic with every one on the forum in one place at the same time. I know that isnt goignt to happen but what a picnic it would be!!!

I have to say the idea of a picnic sounds pretty good right now.......
We have quite a bit of snow............

I'll bring the hot dogs

Welcome Pismax

Hope you don't spread yourself too thin with attending this forum and others, keep in mind quality not quantity. You don't want to spend TOO much time leaping from forum to forum or you will be away from your saw and we won't get to see some of your work, or hear about your scrolling experiences in your posts.

Hi Prismax,

Hope you enjoy this place. I appreciate the offer, but once your at the best scroll saw sight, no other will ever do.

Hello,
I joined the group last week, but thought I should stop in and say hi. Ive been scrolling off and on for several years now. I started out with a used 2 speed 16" delta but have since bought a dewalt 788. I belong to one other forum and will have to say between the two there is a ton of inspiration and knowledge.

Hello everyone!
My name is Rob, and I'm from beautiful (icy) Niagara Falls On. I purchased my first Scroll saw last week (Delta SS250) on the recommendation of a carpenter friend of mine. I've been building Bird Houses and Feeders for a couple of years for gifts and donations to fund raisers. My buddie told me it was time to "Graduate" into something a little more "Artistic". So today I not only joined this Forum to learn from the best, but I also ordered the Scroll Saw Workbook by John Neilson to help me along my way. I look forward to obtaining as much information from everyone, and also sharing anything I can add!
Happy Scrolling to ALL

Welcome aboard Cytop49. Good choice on the saw!, thats my opinion , I am sure many will offer different advice. It is a great beginners saw. I still use mine all the time after 8 years and a couple of rebuilds I don't think there is a project I would not try to make with that saw, as long as I had the wood!
This is a great forum, don't hesitate to call on anyone here if you have a problem or need advice. Sometimes you may need to take the advice with a grain of salt But you cant go wrong with a hobby like scrolling.

Howdy Folks!

Just wanted to introduce myself as I am a complete newbie to the site and hobby. My name is Ron Wilson and I live in Olive Branch, MS. I am 31 and work as a technology consultant in software sales. My job causes me more stress than I care to discuss and I needed some nice hobby that will chill me out! I am into RC cars and a friend I met through the net kinda got me interested in pursuing scrolling. He said FUN, he said RELAXING, in other words he said the right stuff and I promptly went to Home Depot and bought a brand new Dremel Scroll Station. Well, after I accused him of lying through his teeth I realized that perhaps I just did not buy a very good saw. I took it back and started researching decent tools. I ended up buying an older RBI 220-3 from a classified ad on the net. Well, I have since apologized to my buddy and got a well deserved chewing out but we're both happier now! At any rate, I have just finished my first piece, a pretty little dove ornament out of walnut, and am very pleased with it, the saw, the hobby, everything! I still have some issues, one day at this - should I be suprised, and I am sure I will be pestering ya'll for information in the weeks to come. I am looking forward to the hobby and visiting this board in the future.

Scroll on!

Ron
