My Scrolling Hobby Is Officially Over!

Recommended Posts

My Dewalt saw, blades, patterns, etc, left the building this morning....
Time to explore different things.  I did enjoy all of the help and the wealth of useful information you good people provided especially grandpa for providing me with patterns I was able to cut of our seven dogs, of which six, have passed on.  Having completed their portraits made this hobby all worthwhile.  I will still be stopping by to see all of your wonderful creations.  I figured I would post some of the work I did get finished in the last year and show the pile of blades I wish I started from day one.
Again, Thank You All...

Good to see the progress you made along your scrollsaw journey and to share those projects and progression along that journey with us. Also good to see your new hobby and projects and to see and hear from your experiences there. Many folks get stuck on doing one thing and stay with it, many times their whole career or hobby because they learned that and got comfortable with that so then they don't want to step out of their comfort zone. 

While this site is for scroll saw stuff there are other sections that you could post your progress of the new hobby if you'd like to.. I'm sure many others would also love to see that progress as well. If you don't that's fine too but do check in now and then and say hi. This site is like a online family and it's sad to make friendships and then they bail out and never hear from them again. 

I myself haven't really done any scroll work this entire year.. I have been playing with the CNC and laser's but those are forbidden in the scrolling community, but I still hang out here as I've gained many friends here and enjoy the conversations to be had here still. 

Whatever you do, enjoy the journey

This site is home to some really decent helpful people and I will be stopping by to see what everyone has been up to and see their latest work.   I think the reason I started scroll sawing is because I wanted to see if I could actually make anything and then I got hooked.  When I start a new hobby I always go all in and then after awhile it's off to something new.  I'm an old fart and want to try as many new things as possible while I'm still breathing air.  Who knows, maybe someone might want to try out casting with resin after they see a few things.     Been really into using alcohol inks creating what they call the Petri effect and it's very addictive.
