New scroller from Michigan

[ben]

Hi Everyone

 

Haven't done a lot of scroll sawing I do mostly Intarsia. It's been kind of hit and miss through the years though.

 

I have a RBI Hawk 20" that I purchased nearly 18 years ago (1994). It still hums along quite nicely.

 

I have taken an interest in the silhouettes lately. I would like to learn how to take a photo and turn it into a scroll saw project.

 

Glad to be aboard and hope to learn much.

Hi there from Brighton, still sounds like a great saw! They have a link here to a couple great courses on Inkscape and Gimp2.

Hi Ben welcome to the site.

 

For portraits I use a combination of coyote and photoshop.

 

It's definitely an art form and takes a lot of practice. There are several

Tutorials on the web and this site.

 

Good luck
