HoosierWood Posted November 26, 2013 Report Share Posted November 26, 2013 I'm just getting started in scroll sawing. Most of my projects have been animal puzzles and little things like that. My plan is to get into intarsia. Harold Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LarryEA Posted November 26, 2013 Report Share Posted November 26, 2013 Welcome aboard. "Walk' around and explore the Village, there is lots to read and enjoy. I see intarsia similar to fitting a puzzle together so you have a good start in my opinion amazingkevin 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Phantom Scroller Posted November 26, 2013 Report Share Posted November 26, 2013 Harold a big WELCOME from me. don't forget to upload some of your work and remember it can only get better, I know a song about that. Roly Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ron Johnson Posted November 26, 2013 Report Share Posted November 26, 2013 Welcome Harold. Fantastic site with a lot of great people with great advice I am also a new member. It's too bad some of these scrollers wouldn't move further north where the air is cool and crisp. Give me a chance to meet some of these great people in person. Anyways have fun and enjoy your scrolling. You'll do well. amazingkevin 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

heppnerguy Posted November 27, 2013 Report Share Posted November 27, 2013 Harold, We are glad that you found us. The most important thing that you can do, is to start logging in here, often. Read though all the 'forum'. That way you will get to know the people here and you will also find lots of patterns that you are free to download and cut. Be sure to thank the pattern maker if you use one of their patterns. After you make one, be sure and come back and post the results for all to admire. Do not worry that you are knew to scrolling and that your work may not be a good as some of the people with a lot of experience. Remember that everyone had to 'start' at one time and they are all aware of that. No one is to here to critize anyone else, buy rather to encourage each other. The more you post and become active here, the sooner you will feel a real part of our family. Like Ron, said (in a few posts before this one ), he also is new here and has already made 37 posts. If you were to ask Ron, I bet he would tell you that already he is getting to know the regulars and he has posted a lot of his wonderful work. Ron has a lot of experience with scrolling but I would guess that he is enjoying be in the close association with so many other scrollers, I know I am. If you are really interested in doing some intarsia, I can send you a simple pattern so that you can see that you too can do this, quite well. Just ask, if you would like me to do that for you. Also if you need any help or have any questions as you go about making your first piece, I will be happy to answer any questions that i can. there are a lot of people here that are way better than I am at scrolling and intarsia and they too will always be happy to help you in any way. Just ask. Dick heppenrguy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HoosierWood Posted November 27, 2013 Author Report Share Posted November 27, 2013 (edited) I'm already finding the site very helpful. It helps to have a place to go to when you have a question. I noticed some of the questions being asks are the same questions I have especailly about working on your own patterns. And seeing some of the work others have done is inspiring. I know it takes lots of practice and hardwork to get to the point of some of this work, but seeing what can be done with time and work is a motivator to keeping working on it. At this point, intarsia is what I really would like to work on. Some of the art pieces I've seen done is just amazing. I'm sure there's a lot of satisfaction in developing an idea for a piece of art, planning the project out and then wokring on it and watching it build until the piece is complete. I look forward to learning more from everyone and particiapting in the fourm. Edited November 27, 2013 by HoosierWood Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
