I got an Hegner multicast 1 from 1996. It has mostly collected dust, but today I wanted to create something for my grandson's confirmation. I had made all internal cuts but one. I stopped the saw, did the normal procedure when changing to a new entry hole. I pressed the power button, and nothing happened. It seems like there is a fuse that popped, but I can't find it. Is there anyone here that have more knowledge about these machines?

A very nice design but I just wondered about the term "African Tiger". As far as I know there are no wild tigers in Africa. I think a Leopard or Cheetah would be nice here. I'm interesting in all designs relating to Africa

I would love to make an intarsia of the Salvation Army Crest. I have never made an intarsia before, so it have to me a future project, but would be a goal for me. Is there anyone who can direct me in the right direction on how to make this pattern? I'm happy for all help I can get. If I'm able to make one, It will be brought to the Salvation Army in Uganda.

I did my first test cuts yesterday. It looks much easier than it is. Keeping a straight line, compensating, and over compensating etc. I need a lot of practice to master this. I'm looking forward to it though. -

I checked eBay, but it can be expensive, just in shipping. Is there a good supplier in UK? I'm going to Yorkshire in July
-
I've had some of them, but there are still many of them left

Thank you for the information. I'll check it out

Thanks for ideas. I have good time, so I mighrt want to try to get the wood first.

What kind of wood can give me an orange color? I'm thinking of making a puffin. It could sell well to tourist in the Faroe Islands. This is a project im just thinking of doing when I get some training, but some research doesnt hurt

I found a small supplier of different wood today. I'm so happy for that. It was a nice old man that loved to chat, and show me around the shop. This is a hairy coo. She is called Katrina. I photographed her in Scotland in 2012 -

Thanks everybody. I feel welcome already. To Rob, It's good to see neighbors here. Scotland is one of my favorite destinations. I would love to see a hairy coo pattern -
Thanks. I use Photoshop elements for photos, so maybe that would be helpful for me. Intarsia is a bit up the road for me, so I have time to learn

I'm a newbie, but some time ahead, I would like to try with intarsia. I would love to make a portrait of the founder of the Salvation Army, William Booth. Do anyone know of a pattern, or able to make one, or suggest how I can get there. There's no hurry, it's just a goal I want to work towards, after I master the saw Ole Kristian Valle Faroe Islands

I'm a 52 year old man from Norway, but have lived half my life in the Faroe Islands. I got interested in scroll just by chance. I discovered that working with wood was something I liked, after building a doghouse. I bought a Dremel rotary tool, and after browsing other tools from Dremel, I discovered the Moto-Saw, and then I checked up reviews on youtube. Then I discovered Scrollsawing, and wanted to try. I got the scroll saw, but havent had time yet to try it. I have found some practice patterns I want to try on some 6mm plywood. Finding nice wood for projects are hard here, but I can get som skills training on plywood. I'm very excited to fire up the scrollsaw, and try. I hope I can find a lot of help and inspiration here Ole Kristian Valle Faroe Islands
