Hi David,

Welcome to the best on line scrollsaw forum. As you may have gathered from reading some of the questions and posts, we are a friendly bunch of sawdust makers. Don't be embarrased to ask questions. You will get good advice from all who answer you.

Welcome aboard David!! Glad you decided to join in.

How long have you been scrolling and what type of saw do you own?

howdy and welcome David !!!1

Thanks for the welcome everyone.
I have only been scrolling for about 5 months. So I will probably be asking some dumb questions.
I have done a few projects which I will post after I figure out how to do it.

questions

David, there is no such thing as a dumb question. We have all been where you were and did not even know the questions. Ask away, I am sure with the folks on here you will be surprised how helpful they can be. Toby

welcome to the group David, you will find that everyone here has tons of knowledge and are eager to share it so ask away with any questions

Welcome, David!
As you can probably imagine, none of us were born with our scrollsaws, so we all had to get started somehow. Lucky you to have a big family to guide and encourage you.
Let the questions begin!!
And welcome to a big silly, wonderful family.

PS What kind of saw do you have, and what kinds of things do you think you'd like to be scrolling?

Hi David,

Welcome to the group.

The only dumb question is the one you don't ask.

We've all been newbies, and sometimes it refreshes our memory to share it along, so no worries: it's good for us.

Regards,
Marcel

thanks again guys for the warm welcome. I posted one of my projects in the gallery.
I made this for my grand daughters wedding present. I used maple, cherry, and the rose is bubinga.

Wow! David, that clock looks fantastic. Are you sure you’ve only been scrolling for about 5 months?

[Daryl185]

I looked at the clock you did for your Granddaughter David you did a great job on it, very nice detail and fretwork, I know your Granddaughter really loved it

David,
The clock looks great, you can't be all that new to scrolling.
What kind of saw do you have?

[Bill Wilson]

Welcome David, nice job on the clock! Where is the pattern from?
