I have been scrolling for about 15 years. Blew up a craftsman saw the first day and graduated to a Dremel. Joined the big kids and purchased a DeWalt. I do a lot of work for a coffin builder, he gets scrolled items, I get free wood it's a win win. Most of my cutting is done in the dark nights of winter because I like being outside in the summer. My shop is in the corner of my basement, not large but big enough for what I do. I have also taught classes at a local liberal arts university, they harvest their own lumber from the property so every once in a while I get some old growth Red Oak, Maple etc.
