Matthew Gilliam Posted December 29, 2015 Report Posted December 29, 2015 Hello everyone I am from all over currently residing in Greeneville TN. I am just getting into doing some scroll saw things mainly doing research. I started doing engravings and wood carvings and found out the patterns are very similar. I hope to learn a lot from you all. Matthew. amazingkevin 1 Quote

Wow I am no expert by any means. The patterns I get from everywhere I try to find things that are free use sometimes clip art just different things. I have worked on wood, glass, tile, and stone. I use a Dremel with the flex shaft and different bits. I am hoping to start chip carving soon. Quote

heppnerguy Posted January 15, 2016 Report Posted January 15, 2016 Welcome..I see you are up for almost anything artistic. I search through a lot of things myself and when I discovered scrolling I understood quickly that it satisfied my desires for something I would not get tired of doing. So venture into scrolling with an open mind and see the rewards of your efforts quickly. Glad you found us. Dick heppnerguy Quote
