    Thanks to everyone who posted, you all have definated given me the desire to push it further, thanks again. I did run across a web site for patterns from Itally that has some amazing items there. I contacted him and he will sell patterns to the U.S. through email in a PDF format. I will be trying some of his patterns. I highly recommend looking at his web site. Here is a link to the site.http://www.finescrollsaw.com/links.htm

    I made this mirror for my wife for Christmas two years ago. Sadly to say, we are now divorced BUT I kept the mirror! I worked on this for 82 hours and I have had it on display at the Woodcraft store in Toledo Ohio. I am proud that I was able to actually make this seeing as the pattern was printed in Italian and the lady at customer service when I ordered the pattern said that this was the only pattern they had that I could return if I felt I couldn't make it. I think that gave me the drive to make sure I would finish this. I hope everyone likes it.

    Hello, I discovered this site while looking for some new patterns. I used to be a member of a couple scroll saw groups on MSN until they shut that service down and I really miss the people that were there. I have been scroll sawing for about 5 years now and love challenging projects. I have made a few patterns myself but usually get my patterns off the internet or from Wildwood. My saw might be considered "laughable" to most, it's a Tradesman 16". Even though it's not the highest quality saw, luckily it has not failed me yet. I do enjoy very intricate projects like the Italian Dresser Mirror from I believe Wildwood. That took me 82 hours to make and it has to be the one project that I treasure the most, it was even on display at the Woodcraft store in Toledo for several months. So far I haven't really sold very much, I usually make items for gifts or for myself. I have gotten my 18 yr old son and my 14 yr old daughter interested in scrolling. I am disabled and this gives me something relaxing and rewarding to do. I hope to get to know most of you here. Eric
