old sarge Posted September 17, 2021 Report Share Posted September 17, 2021 Hello - I stumbled across the forum tonight and joined. I have been scrollsawing off and on since the late 80's. I started with a small Craftsman saw and then jumped to the Excalibur 24 inch saw of Sommerville Design in the early part of the 90's. I still have the EX. I have sawn nothing fancy; just puzzles and simple crafts for children/giveaways. Some lettering and signs. Pretty basic items. I hope to try more intricate work in the future and increase my skills.

preprius Posted September 17, 2021 Report Share Posted September 17, 2021 welcome to the village. I joined here in Dec 2020. I have learned so much asking questions to the experts. My first little projects try to do stuff a laser can not do. This goal brings up questions and pushed the boundaries of the saw. But these guys here help me learn little tricks and tips. Feel free to ask any questions. Even little ones. Or big ones. Oh and we love pictures. Again welcome. Me. Mark Eason Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

heppnerguy Posted September 28, 2021 Report Share Posted September 28, 2021 Welcome from Southern Arizona where it is summer like, most of the year. I joined The Village in 2012. I have made the effort to meet a few of our members, personally and have acquired some really good friends as a result. Please post some of your work and be sure and look things over in every category as you just might be delighted at what you might find here. There are a lot of free patterns you can download and give a try at something new, as a result. Hope to see you around on a regular basis Dick heppnerguy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
amazingkevin Posted October 1, 2021 Report Share Posted October 1, 2021 Welcome friend!!! Scroll Saw Village has been a blessing for me . Glad you found us and hope you become a regular too!!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
old sarge Posted October 2, 2021 Author Report Share Posted October 2, 2021 Again, thanks for the welcome. Although not in the market for a new saw, I have read about some I had never heard about. So I looked them up like King and Pegas. Very similar looking to the Excaliber. I found that interesting. The machines sure have come a long way.
