kohr349 Posted January 19, 2014 Report Share Posted January 19, 2014 i am a newby also. have worked in a wood shop many years ago with special ed students as a teacher's aide but no scroll saw. received an older model for christmas. had to clean the contacts and plug before it would run as it sat for 4 yrs in a grage in ok without use. I am excited to learn more about scroll sawing and hoping to make this a big hobby besides my motorcycle trips. I teach math at the high school level. Hope to be able to get lots of tips and info here. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LarryEA Posted January 20, 2014 Report Share Posted January 20, 2014 Stephanie, Pleased to have you as a member. You can learn as much as you can obsorb here. Some of our more seasoned scrollers may have started on a treadle scroll saw. (:>)))))))) One member uses a 10" hand fret or coping saw and she does beautiful mountain scenes. I believe the answer to your woodwork/scroll questions is here, just ask. Welcome!!!!!!!!! Scrolling is habit forming Larry Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
