Sinister1957 Posted April 16, 2020 Report Share Posted April 16, 2020 Hi All New to scroll sawing... A couple of my hobbies include basic watch repair and servicing, and woodworking projects. I have a small work shop in my basement but it is pretty well equip for my needs. I recently combined both hobbies and starting making mantel clocks when I ran across people making clocks totally out of wood. I purchased a cheap wen scroll saw just to stick my toe in the water. After cutting my first gear I became very interested in learning more about scroll sawing. I seen some of the work you guys do here and can only hope I can get as proficient, Anthony Puzzleguy, Scrolling Steve and amazingkevin 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rockytime Posted April 17, 2020 Report Share Posted April 17, 2020 Welcome to the Village Anthony! Interesting your interest in watches. I was a clock repairer for over 40 years. Loved it. Never had the discipline for watches. You have discovered a wonderful new hobby. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

heppnerguy Posted May 2, 2020 Report Share Posted May 2, 2020 So glad you decided to join up with us. We are very friendly and helpful people here. Helping one another is something we all love to do, as we all started in the same place. Be sure to explore everything we have to offer and have fun with your new wooden clock pattern. I tried to make one soon after I started but never got it to work. spacing seems to be the secret for smooth running and I didn't get it then. Still have the pattern and may give it a try in the future. With your clock experience, you just might get that think ticking. I Be sure and post it when you get it done. Don't get frustrated along the way. Ask any questions that may come up, as there are several people here who have been successful making the wooden gear clocks. Have fun. log on often.
