Hello, everyone! I'm new here but also new to scrolling. My daughter got me hooked and now I've got a couple of questions.
I was looking at some finished work pictures here and saw one with a train that had inside cuts. The cuts were just lines on the piece. No cut out sectioni but just lines. My question is how do you know what size drill bit to use so you can cut those lines without a round hole to show where you started? I'm using Flying Dutchman blades but have no idea what drill bit to use with which blade.
My other question is where do I find reasonably priced wood to scroll that is 1/8" to 1/2"? I live in New Jersey and there is no where here that sells wood that thin. I've only been able to find warped basswood 1/4" plywood at the craft stores or 3/4" solid planks at the lumber yards.
Any direction on where to get decent, thin, reasonbly priced wood would be greatly appreciated! Thanks!
