shelayla Posted April 8, 2009 Report Posted April 8, 2009 Hi all. I am 42 years young from West (by God) Virginia.When I was a young'n my dad would keep me occupied in his shop making things with a coping saw. I have been interested in scrolling for years but never had the time to try it. Well I finally found time and I am hooked !! I am just learning so I am sure everybody can help me in some way. I just found this site this morning and it is great!!! I am looking forward to meeting people and learning all there is to learn. I just ordered an excalibur, any suggestions or tricks. I have been using a hitachi that takes pinned end blades,,,frustrating is all I can say. Hope to hear from all of you out there in scroller land. Later. shelayla Quote
Travis Posted April 8, 2009 Report Posted April 8, 2009 Hi Shelayla! Welcome to the Village. I think you'll have a great time here. Lots of friendly folks here and enough patterns to keep you busy for quite some time! Boy, you don't mess around when buying a scroll saw! The Excalibur is a really nice machine. You're going to love it! I can't wait to see some of your work. You can set up a User Gallery to show off a bit (you can find a tutorial here). Anyway, we're glad to have you on board! If you have any questions, just ask. Everybody is very knowledgeable and willing to help. Quote

shelayla Posted April 10, 2009 Author Report Posted April 10, 2009 Thanks to all of you. Christine you do some excellent work !!! Just got the new saw today. I am so excited I am shaking all over. I have to wait for my better half to get home and set it up because it is so heavy I can't lift it. This is just the best sight !!! I have been working on the Inkscape with the resizing,,,, great program. I have already spent hours on here just in awe. Quote
