    I took a cutoff piece of pool noodle and attached a carriage bolt and washers through it. Ran a couple laps of sandpaper (running the right way) and used my canned adhesive to seal it. I put this in my drill press at 1100 rpm and it so far works pretty good. Air filled sanders do work the best but they are very expensive. Also I made a light box with a small fluorescent light and Plexiglas top. I put my mating pieces on the pattern which is on the light and it tells me where I need to sand off to get it to seam closer. By all means have fun. Dale

    Hello everyone.....Dale here: I had a small heavy vibrating Craftsman scroller for the last 20 years and got a 16" Excalibur about a year or 2 ago. Its like driving a luxury car after driving a dirt bike all my life. I am busing it constantly and looking for new areas to use it. My favorite is Intarsia. I teach some beginner classes in scroll and intarsia an am always looking for patterns, tips, ideas. etc. I am fortunate to get some exotic wood scraps and would like to get some better sanding equipment. My wish is to invent my own patterns and will try to see if I can make them look good.Do a few craft shows and try to sell enough to make it fun. Anyway, we are all on a learning curve and I hope to share and listen to items about scrolling. Also do wood burning and carving and hope to find a scroll club in my area also.......Dale
