Morning all! My father got me into scroll sawing in the early 70's, he did amazing work up until his passing about 4 years ago. His work was mostly given as gifts his favorite work were baskets. I left for the service (a 23 year career) and am working on a second career. I got my fathers DeWalt scroller, and now searching myself to figure what I would like to do the most of with his scroller.

Scroll saw village has been a blessing to find! I am loving all the different ideas out there and all the various projects folks are working on. I eventually want to get enough projects done to take to craft shows. I like the idea of projects with mini clocks or even weather stations (barometer, thermometer, humidity), etc. and to try to tie it in with the state, crabs!, and or a car culture that is around the area. 

I've babbled enough ….. Good Scrolling everyone!

I recently retired too from the military and was told to find a hobby. Scrolling sort of fell into my lap and I am glad it did. Like you, I am thinking of going to craft shows, but I am only doing silhouettes right now. Maybe one day, something more elaborate. Anyways, glad you found us and look forward to seeing your byproducts of making sawdust.
