Travis Posted December 28, 2012 Report Share Posted December 28, 2012 I posted an article called "A New Year's Resolution" awhile back. It got me thinking, what is your new year's resolutions in regards to scrollsawing/crafting? This year, I'm going to try spoon carving, do more woodturning and scrolling. I also want to start an Etsy store just to try it out. H'bout you? What do you want to accomplish for 2013? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

don in brooklin on Posted December 30, 2012 Report Share Posted December 30, 2012 (edited) I have 2 goals. 1. Make some non round bowls. I have have the 2 books by Carole Rothman and most of the tools. I have attempted a couple of test bowls with out much success. I want to give it another go in the new year with a different patterns and material. I would like to get a couple of square or oblong bowls and a couple of wavy done so I can go to "show and tell" at the club and ask the turners it they can do that. There is a friendly rivalry between the scrollers and turners. 2. I want to learn Intarsia too. I have all the tools (I think) and some western red cedar. When I was at Judy Gale Robert's studio in the summer I bought a book and I plan on making all the examples. Judy says it teaches you all the basics. I have built a sanding station that has a wonder wheel and a flexible sanding drum. I was on the todo list but I had too many projects for Christmas. Now just have to finish one more club project and get started next week. Don Edited December 30, 2012 by don in brooklin on Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cyclistjim Posted December 31, 2012 Report Share Posted December 31, 2012 I plan on getting back in scrolling this year once it warms up. I spent the last two years working nights and just could not find time to scroll at all I always thought i made too much noise to go out at 2am to scroll. It wasn't the scroll saw as much as it was the shop vac that makes so much noise. I finally managed to move to another job last month but it was already too late for this year Its cold outside and my shed has no heat so I don't bother trying. But then I am in the south so by March it should be warm enough to start up again. Jim Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wombatie Posted December 31, 2012 Report Share Posted December 31, 2012 I want to lose 6kg in weight and I will try something new and different on the scroll saw. Oh and TRY to keep my work area a little cleaner. I think thats all. Should not be too hard should it??????????? Marg Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
