This site looks like the place to get me started. We live just outside the entrance to Yosemite Nat. Park.. I do chainsaw carving, machining, welding ,etc. etc. but I have never done in scroll saw work. I am retired and raising and homeschooling an adopted son he is 12 years old soon to be 13. I thought scrolling would be a good place for him to start to learn the safe use of power equipment ( much safer than a rotating blade, chainsaw, or bandsaw) and to put his imagination to work and turn out a project at the same time. I have worked with my hands all my life building one thing and another and supporting my family and I hope to show my son that he to is capable of doing many things with his hands and mind with Gods help.To many kids stuck on TV and video games these days and as a result they don't develope their God given talents. I may be asking for some help along the way folks, so thanks in advance. Thanks also for the opportunity to join the group.

Thanks for having us join.

Good day everyone I really enjoy your site Steve I have made some of your patterns and had good responses to them . I have a 1800 Dremel it has good and bad points but as I do sawing as a hobby it works great for me of course would not turn down a chance for a dewalt :) .

Welcome Papiyo!  So glad you've joined us and can't wait for you to get your shop up and running.  Now is the time to amass your patterns and get your cut list going.  Watch out - your wife just might get the bigger, badder saw!

Lee,  big time welcome!  I started on a Dremel 1800 and loved it.  It was the start of a great journey.  My son-in-law has it now and it is still going strong.  Glad to have you.
