I thought I had posted before but I can't find it so I guess I didn't. I live in Gander Newfoundland and have been scrolling for about 5 years now. I bought the scroll saw for my husband and he showed me how to use it because he prefers to do intarsia on the band saw. I like doing intarsia on the scroll saw because I want to keep my fingers trying to cut out the small pieces and I also do fretwork. I have also done some gift portraits for people where I make the pattern from a photo. I work for the Federal Government so this hobby is my stress reliever but I cannot buy any thin wood or other supplies or patterns here in town so I shop on the internet or go to Kents in St.John's for wood when I can but it is a long drive. I really like these sites to get ideas, help from other scrollers and you can't beat the free patterns these generous designers make for us! Thanks a lot!
