dawsondan69 Posted November 11, 2020 Report Share Posted November 11, 2020 Hi everyone... My name is Dan and I'm a scrollaholic... I'm from northwest Pennsylvania near Punxsutawney... Thank you for letting me join you all in this group.... I am very new to scroll sawing like ten days... My saw is cheap and shakey but I am really enjoying it so far... My goal is to save enough money to actually buy a higher quality saw I just really can't believe how much fun I am having making different things and learning more about the different things that are possible to make.. I hope to get to know some people and share my growth with you all in this new hobby.. amazingkevin 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FrankEV Posted November 12, 2020 Report Share Posted November 12, 2020 Hey Dan, Welcome to the Village from a little South of you on the East Coast of Central Florida. Better save those pennies fast as you will want to get a decent saw as soon as possible. This is a great hobby but even more great when you use the right tools and a good quality saw. This is a good place to learn and meet great people dawsondan69 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fedido Posted November 17, 2020 Report Share Posted November 17, 2020 Hi Dan, Welcome to SSV! like you, I started with a cheap old hand me down scroll saw. In a year, this site has taught me so much and pushed my comfort zone to a point where I am confident in a lot of scrolling. No just with a scroll saw either, I have learned with a jig saw for the bigger projects. You have a wealth of knowledge at your fingertips now! Hope to you here frequently and a lot. dawsondan69 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dawsondan69 Posted November 26, 2020 Author Report Share Posted November 26, 2020 Thank you everyone... And Happy Thanksgiving to you all.. I just realized everyone had responded to my post... I would have wrote much sooner... I have been scrolling away and I just can't get enough of it... I slack on finishing my projects though... I'm not an artist in any way so I get nervous painting them and stains seem to no take to the wood well where the saw blade cuts it.. If that makes sense and I don't know if like the way plywood looks in the center stained.... I suppose I will learn as I go and am happy to hear any advice from you all. I will post some pictures of what I have cut so far and I will put them in order from my first one to my most recent one.. Hope you all are having a safe and happy Thanksgiving Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
