Just another newbie!!
« on: March 07, 2011, 06:51:49 am »
Hello everyone! I am relatively new to scrolling. I could make a short story long, but I won't. I started doing Intarsia for stress relief. It worked! I started with a band saw that was given to me. I quickly decided that a scroll saw was the way to go with the band saw as a backup. I recently upgraded to an Excalibur. The new small one. I think it is 16". That is when I found Steve's web site. I love the smell of saw dust in the morning!! Sorry, I tend to ramble, but Iam looking forward to seeing all that is going on in the scrolling world!! My name is Richard. I live in eastern NC.

Hi Richard a warm welcome from a chilly but sunny Netherlands. For scrolling this is the place to be.
Hope you enjoy it as much as I do.

Hi and welcome.  I'm Jim from London, Ontario.  I agree with you....scrolling is a great stress relief.  It sure works for me.  I sometimes joke with people that they better not give me a hard time, or "it might be you that I think I'm cutting, not the wood" :D
