Also new to the site

Hi,

I just found out about this site from the scrollsaw workshop and it looks great. I have been a woodworker all my life, and started scrolling in 1986 with a craftsman 16". In 1988 I bought a Hegner and never stopped cutting, I did the shows and consignment shops, and due to health issues, now just do it for enjoyment. I am also a member of the penmakers guild and was elected in due to a combination of turning and scrolling ( a scrolled 3D closed end pen). I am planning a move to Pa right now so time may be limited but hope to visit here often as it looks like a great site. Thanx for letting me join the fun ~ Joe

Hi Joe, welcome to the village. We would love to see some pictures.

Welcome to the Village, Joe! We're glad to have you on board. Pen turning is something I've been wanting to try for awhile now. I was saving my pennies this year to buy a lathe, but my savings plan fell through. So I'll probably have to wait until next year before trying my hand at it. Looks like a lot of fun. When you do the turning/scrolling project, could you share some pictures with the rest of us? We would love to see that take shape! Anyway, welcome aboard. Jump on in and have some fun!
