Hello from Oregon

[thecopperfish]

Hi from the Pacific Northwest. My name is Chris and I mainly do intarsia scrolling. I've been doing intarsia for about 2 1/2 years. I have a DeWalt 788 scroll saw and a Delta bench top bandsaw. My other main hobby is fishing, my husband and I go fishing whenever we can. I'm looking forward to getting acquainted here, thanks for letting me join.

You've got to have more tools than that. I have the same two tools and there is no way I could do intarsia.

Anyway, welcome and I'll be anxiously awaiting pictures of what my tools are capable of.

BTW, my other main hobby is also fishing, even though I've never caught a fish quite like that.

Thanks everyone for the warm welcome!
Yes Mike, I do have more tools than that, a drill press, bench top belt sander, router with table, a couple motors with sanding drums, dremel and attachments etc. but the DeWalt rules, the rest are there to serve it.

Thank goodness Bill, I was afraid no one would make any....hmmm I think I can smell it now....

Yes Gill, she did hold me very nicely but I bit her thumb anyway

Thanks again everyone,
Chris

Hi Chris, welcome to the forum. We have a couple of other Oregonians here. I am from Myrtle Creek, about a hundred miles from the California border on I-5. What part of the state do you call home???

[thecopperfish]

Hi Chuck, nice to meet you! I live in Brownsville, about 20 miles north of Eugene and about 4 miles east of I-5. I've been to Myrtle Creek but not for quite awhile. I work in Eugene but seldom get south of there anymore.
Thanks for the welcome, I look forward to my time here.
Chris
