  • Loging for My Dad

    I do little scrolling myself but was looking to ask some questions for My Dad. I have also been working with my 9 year old daughter on scrolling so I may drop by now and again.

    My dad is in his 70's and is an avid scrollsawer. He lives north of Muskegon Michigan and I was wondering if there were any groups that met in that area I could hook him up with? He is big into Habitat for hummanity and likes to work with his hands. Not to add a sad note but Mom passed away 2 years ago and it has been a bit rough for him to adjust to that void. He tries to keep busy but I would like to expand on his possibilities of interaction with others of like interests.

    Anyhow. Good to see everyone and hope to interact with you in the future. Happy woodworking.

    Steven,

    Sorry about your Mom. It's a nice thing you are doing for your Dad. This website has links to other sites that may be of help. Check out the "Other Great Sites" page under "Scrolling Community". I didn't see any in Michigan, but maybe you could log into the SAW website and check their club listing.

    I'm in a club in PA and ours isn't listed in this site either, but we are registered with SAW. Worth a shot. Good luck!

      Sometimes a person just can't find a good pattern to cut a picture so they have to just make their own. Thats me setting on the running board, the picture was taken about 1973 just before I retired from the Military 1974. After I retred I drove that truck from Pensacola, Florida to Salida, Colorado...

      Stack Cutting
      by Eugene Downes
      Like most of you out there I like to stack cut because I can finish more than 1 at a time. I've tried many ways in the past to hold everything together. I've used screws, hammer and nails, staples and clamps. The best and easyest way I have found is to use a brad gun. It leaves a very small hole and...

      Search for a used hegner. Parts are readily available and their service Dept is top notch. My first one was a craftsman and hubby bolted it to the workbench it was on. Then I switched to a bandsaw than my Hegner 21 years ago....
