Hi
I am a homemaker (for now)..have always worked, and was an aide from the time my kids were in kindergarten.. they are now 27 and 30! I have alot of time on my hands.
Just recently bought a scrollsaw and am excited to start using it.....I am a avid crafter, and One of the things I like to do with scrollsaw patterns is to use it, for now, for scherenschnitte...(paper cutting)..they certainly make beautiful cuttings. Right now, am trying to find western patterns, and native american...(working with paper in the AC is alot more comfortable than out with the saw!!! Am excited about finding this site and learning!

by Linda In Phoenix

It would be truly helpful if all publications were to clearly state on each pattern "enlarge pattern by x% for full size" or something like that which would clue the user in. But I'm like Rolf....I change the size of every pattern to get what I want.

I agree with you Mark, I am constantly changing or adapting my patterns to suit my taste or the size of the wood that is available to me. Thinking about electronic versions of the patterns, that would be great. But very hard to control. It amazes me how many people have no scruples about sharing....
