GL88M Posted February 10 Report Posted February 10 Hi Everyone. I am 88 years of age and have just acquired my first Rexon scroll saw. I am most impressed by the skills of you all. My fingers are as stiff as wood itself now but hopefully they will remain intact while I am practicising scroll sawing. I live in the Torbay area of England. Scrolling Steve and barb.j.enders 2 Quote
Dak0ta52 Posted February 10 Report Posted February 10 Welcome to the Village from North Carolina. Fortunately, keeping your fingers is pretty easy using a scroll saw. Most you might get is a serious scratch. Looking forward to seeing your work. Jim Finn 1 Quote
Scrappile Posted February 10 Report Posted February 10 Welcome to the village, Arthur. I have been scrolling for many years. Still have all my fingers. I did touch the blade once right after stopping it and got a tine burn blister! I think you will enjoy the hobby. Quote
