New guy from Steeler country
« on: October 26, 2011, 03:27:12 pm »
Greetings fellow scrollers.  My name is Bill and I've just joined the forum.  I live about 40 miles north of Pittsburgh.  I've been butchering wood and making sawdust in one manner or another for over 30 years.  I've been scrolling for about 15 years or so, a little more seriously over the past 5 or 6.  I'm currently using a Dewalt saw.

I belong to a scroll saw club and several of the members keep commenting how much they like Steve's patterns.  Through another forum, I met a new friend, Dan (dgman), who suggested I try out this forum.  So, I figured I'd jump in and see what it's all about.  So far looks like a pretty cool place.  Gotta be careful though, this forum time is cutting into my shop time.   ;D

So, if you don't mind, I'll look around a bit, maybe post a comment or question, now and then.  I promise I'll try not to get in the way, but my wife says that's what I do best.   ;)   ;D

Thanks all for the welcome.  I've been hanging around a little and also looking at the rest of the website.  I must say, this looks to be a rather impressive resource.
