New to scrollsaw art

Hello!

My name is Florin, I am 25 years old and I am from Romania.

I worked as web developer around 1.5 years  and I kinda fooled myself, the pay was good but I was not happy with what I was doing, like when you wake up and you can't wait to go to work. I worked there until I said fuck this, enough!

I always was a crafting guy since a little kid and I think I should focus on that, crafting something with my own hands.

I discovered this scroll saw thing a few days ago and I am happy I found this forum.

All I need to do now is to find an atelier with a scroll saw, I do not have 1000 euros to buy one at the moment.

I think it would be perfect if I could do nice scroll saw things and sell them, we all need money for surviving :)

Thank you for your time!

Happy scroll saw-ing :D

Welcome Florin, Don't focus on €1000. My first saw 5 years ago was about €180, and the one I use now is about €650. Check the members Map on the top line. There are about 40 members listed for Romania. There may be someone near you who had an old saw to lend / sell you till you decide what to do.

Welcome to The Village. I love that we have so many people in our family of scroller from  Europe and other parts of the world. Because of that  I feel like I know people all over this planet. I can travel almost anywhere and I could fine someone that knows me and I them. Enjoy your  time here but remember one thing,.....the most important thing I can suggest is that you log on often and it will only be a short time and you will find you have a vast number or new friends.
