WoodBarter Posted December 15, 2014 Report Share Posted December 15, 2014 Hello from Texas. My name is Kevin and I joined for two main reasons - first because I'm looking for a saw and hoping to find a fair deal on a decent used one. Second, because whether I find a saw here or elsewhere, I will be doing a lot of lurking and reading here and eventually asking questions probably. I'm not planning to get into scrolling per se, but mainly intarsia. I have at least two upcoming projects that will require some fairly simple inlays and I want them to be slightly pronounced intarsia inlays. Ater that if all goes well, I'll probably want to incorporate them into more of my woodworking. I do turning (not very expeprienced at it mostly pepper mills and smaller stuff) and mainly flat work which I'm decent at but wouldn't say great by any means. I have a trade initiated on another forum for an older Delta, but the trade is just now starting and even if it happens I'll probably still be on the lookout for something a little better. The member wants some of the wood I have (I own a sawmill) so we'll see how that goes. That's my story thanks for having me!

LarryEA Posted December 15, 2014 Report Share Posted December 15, 2014 Welcome to here. So glad you joined us. Ah, a sawmill, a wood source in Texas, and you imply you are trading wood for a saw. I wish you well in obtaining your scroll saw, learning intarsia, reading...which we will patiently wait you to finish and then your questions. Your projects sound intruiging and would be interesting to see. So read away and tour the Village. Stop by the Coffee Shop and chat anytime. Interesting place where the 'chatter scrollers' gather.
