Hello, Another new scroller here. I am a retired USPS Letter Carrier living in Anchorage, Alaska. Been here 30+ years, so figure I'll maybe stay...see if I like it. I bought a Porter Cable 18" scroll saw a month or so ago and have finally got around to setting it up and using it. I spent the month looking at patterns, tips and tricks online. Also found this wonderful site and downloaded a few of the patterns. I just finished the "Creature of the Night" (Ace of Spades design) sign last night. I had scrolled a couple practice sheets and tackled this sign as a starter piece. I think it is a very good choice for a first project. It poses some challenging cuts, but is very forgiving given the overall design. I cut it out of .25 plywood using a #5 Reverse blade for the outer edge and most of the inside cuts. Also used a #3 spiral blade for the narrow inner cuts. Overall, I enjoyed it and now have to decide on my next project. I know, I covered a lot of topics here, but just excited to be part of a great, knowledgable group of people. Thank you ahead of time for the advice and help I will most likely ask for in the future.

Hello everyone, I am new to this forum and scroll sawing. I am also a digitizer of embroidery designs. I love doing both, but, find I am loving the scroll saw so much that my other craft has taken a back seat. lol I use to live in Anchorage, Alaska for over 30 years. We moved to northeast Ohio two years ago. I am loving being back in the lower fourty eight. UPDATE: My site is now on my blogspot, link is below, designs can be bought there also~scrolling work and pics will also be there. You can see me site here: I have added a spot for my new hobby "scroll sawing". Erie Pines Designs Thanks for allowing me to join your forum, I know I can find many answers to questions in here and so many lovely patterns. Thanks again, Maggie Nell
