H my username is bazzer. I am new to this site, I am from Accrington in Lancashire uk. I have been scroll saw/ fret saw working for aprox 20 years as a hobby, made lots of gifts over the years, I enjoy designing and making my items.  I mainly use my hand fret saw this way I can get more accurate cuts and better control, and find im quite fast so I rarely use the electric one. I am interested in pyograghy too and have mixed this with my design work. just finished a clock for my daughters birthday,  hope to here from some of you woodworkers.

 I am new to this site and would like to introduce myself. I am from Kumbakonam town in Tamilnadu, INDIA. I have been scroll saw/ fret saw working for more than 25 years as a hobby I learnt this art from my DAD, made lots of gifts over the years, I enjoy designing and making my items.  I started using my hand fret saw during my school days. I could be able to do more accurate jobs ( see the attachments, some of the jobs i made 25 years before) Recently i find more time after my retirement and likely to concentrate more on scrolling. As an engineer and tool designer i could be able to make my own scroll saw designed and to do more fine scrolling. Through my daughter at US i got few patterns from " fine scroll.com ".  See the second attachment the jewel box that i made last year. Now I am interested in conducting classes on fine scroll, hope to have more ideas from you all. Thank you.

Aravamudhan,Welcome to the Village! Excellent work with a hand fret saw !! I am sure we can learn a lot from each other  :) You will not run short of patterns here( warehouse of patterns :lol: ) and incase you require a personal pattern that also can be made here by our famous designers here in the village.

Vanakkam! once again

Namaste, Aravamudhan. Welcome to the village. As Mahendra said, there's lots of excellent resources here for you to explore, and some great designers. Your work is very admirable (particularly for hand saw). If you need any help - feel free to ask.

Kindest Regards,

Nick (Jain) - East Coast UK
