KnSMorgan-1 Posted June 28, 2009 Report Posted June 28, 2009 Hi. I'm brand new to scroll sawing. I'm working on nameplates right now. Where can I find free scroll fonts to download off the internet? Thank you. Keith Quote
Travis Posted June 29, 2009 Report Posted June 29, 2009 Hi Kieth. Welcome to the Village! We're glad you found us. I have a nice post in Scroll Saw Goodies I posted last year with a nice selection of font sites. You can check them out here. I've been a pretty big fan of DaFont too. They have a nice selection with an easy interface. Easy to browse to find the font you're looking for. I hope this helps. Quote
c_lang Posted July 2, 2009 Report Posted July 2, 2009 Another way you can do nameplates is with the scrollsaw name printer. I can't remember the exact name or site to get it from, but I'm sure someone here does. It's an easy way to do name plates. Or I think so anyways. And a great thing about it is it's FREE!!!! Quote
wombatie Posted July 2, 2009 Report Posted July 2, 2009 I think the site you are thinking of is Steve Good's Scrollsaw Workshop. I think the address is www.scrollsawworkshop.com Marg Quote
Barry5180 Posted July 2, 2009 Report Posted July 2, 2009 Marg, your address was off just slightly. This is the correct address http://scrollsawworkshop.blogspot.com/ Steve has some really nice stuff online, and the best part is that it's mostly free. Keith, many regular fonts are suitable for use as scrolling with only minimal modification. Usually the only thing needed is to open up the closed letters for use. Barry Quote
Travis Posted July 2, 2009 Report Posted July 2, 2009 You might get a kick out of this tutorial using Inkscape. Pretty much any font will work here. Quote
