New to scrolling but not to woodworking

[Gary Rider]

Hello everyone,

I have been wood working for years but my wife wants items that are done more and more with a scroll saw. Well I did not have one, (correction- she had one many years ago- craftsman with pin in blades) So I told her I needed a scroll saw of good quality. Well she purchased the King 21" saw on sale at woodcraft for Christmas. Since then I have been scouring the internet for beginner tips in scroll sawing and thankfully You tube has several video's just for beginners.

 

I will be looking for patterns, tips from day to day and hopefully some day I can contribute to the forum.

We all started this hobby at some point and luckily, everyone on here remembers that, so there is no dumb questions, helpful bunch here.

There is a pattern library in the menu above, free for use, just mention the pattern maker if you would when you show the piece.
