New Old Guy
« on: November 18, 2016, 11:53:26 pm »
Been using the patterns and reading the posts on this site for a while.  Guess it is time to get more involved.  Started scrolling with a Craftsman saw back in 1994.  Liked it, but liked pulling a trailer and traveling more.  Kept coming back to scrolling until I moved to an apartment.  Took a few years, but finally managed to make enough room in the attached (but unheated) garage.  Broke the Craftsman (parts no longer available), scraped enough pennies together to get a Porter-Cable, used it a couple of years, but decided I really wanted something a little better.  Just recently got a Delta.  Wow!  What a difference.  The only downside is that if a make a bad cut, I can no longer blame it on the saw!
Looking forward to learning even more thanks to the dedicated scrollers here.

It's nice to be important, but more important to be nice.
