Hello from the Netherlands
« on: April 15, 2012, 05:03:55 pm »
Hello to all,

after reading this forum for a week I decided to make an account myself.

My name is Richard and I live in Tegelen (the Netherlands), a small village near the German border.
I started scrolling in 2005, as I couldn't work for a while because I broke my leg. I bought a cheap scrollsaw because I was bored. Then I found out how much fun it is to be scrolling and after a few years I bought myself a better scrollsaw. (A Proxxon DSH )

Since then I made several things, from X-masdecoration (Schwibbogen) to portraits. I discovered this site because I was searching for new scrollsaw patterns and found them here. I hope to learn a lot from you and will try to participate as much as I can on this forum. But you have to remember, english is not my native language so forgive me my faults.

I trhink I introduced myself well enough, if you have some questions, just ask.

For now, good night ( it is 11.00 PM here)

Richard

Hi Richard,
I was born in Uithuizermeeden. Gron. Tegelen is that in Overijzel? Ik had eens een vriendin there in the buurt.
Steve Good has a lot of patterns and I am sure that you can find some you might like.
Your English is very good even better than mine. Feel free to email me have you do not understand some.
