    I'm not quite following what you're saying about the teardrop idea. Can anyone make this "idiot clear"?

    Can anyone advise this newbie how to scroll saw a military portrait? I'd like to try to scroll saw my son"s Air Force portrait, but if I remove all the dark areas ( and there is alot of it) It takes away his lapel insignias, his nameplate and his ribbons. Also I'd like to show some detail in his cap so he doesn't look like a "cone head". Is there any how-to books out there that would address suit coats? Any advice is appreciated.

    Hi everyone. My name is Dale. I'm a newbie scroll saw er from Holy Toledo, Ohio. I lost my job as a Fire alarm systems inspector in '08 and took up the wood lathe mostly making pens to keep myself busy until I could get back to work. However, I have had more and more problems with Lumbar Spinal Stenosis, had surgery for that while I was off work, and my back and legs haven't been the same since. Now I can't work. My workshop isn't heated so I had my son bring my scroll saw in the house and set up in a spare bedroom. Gives me something to pass the time. I can't work very long on a project because I can't stand or sit too long without it aggravating my back. But I do enjoy woodworking so I tinker with it here and there.
