Welcome To Scroll Saw Village Michael,I too dove in first then learned to swim,lol.This is a very relaxing ,enjoyable hobby.glad your here.open your gallery here on the top of this page to show us your firewood projects as you become acclamated to the richawals of scrolling.$7.00 an hour is a fair price for most scroll work.It's tough to make a living doing this type of work.I traded some of my work for a dw788 scrollsaw and was overwhelmed at the deal.Beauty is in the eye's of the beholder.One man junk is another mans treasure.Yard sales are low priced allmost give away prices .You need to stay with craft shows .Church ones seem to have a lower entery fee.Craft shows get upwards of $100.00 to get in.and then there's parks and communitys that have craft sales too which are low price entery fee's.My first $20.00 show ,out of 10 crafter's i was the only one to sell anything,and $190.00 at that.They were over whelmed at the detail i got out of wood!.Stay busy making things ,it's all practice work for you so selling these really is'nt the main thing to worry about.their buying your practice piece's!lol.Your going to have a lot of self satisfieing pleasure scrolling and you get your own man cave to do it in! lol, looking forward to seeing your work ,thanks for joining!
