Hello from Chicago.

[LivinOnTheRocks]

Hello, I'm Brennan. 
I just bought my first scroll saw, a used Delta 40-540.

My first project is just a bunch of squiggly and straight lines to get used to the saw and then I'm getting right into cutting 20in tall letters to build a sign for my business. 

When I figure out the saw, I have a ton of other projects in mind already. Should be a cool new hobby. 

I'm going to go lurk the archives and absorb y'alls knowledge. 

Thanks!

Welcome to the Village from Canada. Searching the archives is a great way to learn, I do it. But don't forget, answers are only a question away.

Have fun.
