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

What kind of saw do you have?

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

Talked to him yesterday after he was coherent. Very fortunately, it was dc current. He said ac current and would have ended differently. And it wasn’t a house. It was a converter box in a marina located on a deck cut into a 20’ high steep bank. They had to climb a ladder to get to it. And they were...
Wow!!!! That is beautiful. Super job of sawing. If I worked it out correctly it took you less than a minute for each opening especially when I look at the amount of time it would take to saw the outline of the bear. Garry
Thanks guys, I have a lot of HDU left over from my sign business in various thicknesses.
HDU doesn't "fuse" or repair itself under heat or friction. Only acrylics and some PVC materials do that. Depending on what part of the world you are in, you would have to google HDU Distributors...
