Hello everyone. I'm Luciano from Malta and will be retiring from work within a few weeks. I hope that I will have more time in which I can do some scroll sawing. I have been at this hobby since I was a teenager... quite a long time ago.. over 40 years!!! I did a few things but work and the family took a good part of my life. Now my children are grown up and am planning to go back to scroll sawing or as some call it, fretworking. I have bought an electric scroll saw machine to help me with thicker woods... I only used the hand frame so far. I am already preparing photocopies of patterns to stick to the wood for cutting. I will try to post some more messages shortly. In the meantime I must thank scrollsawvillage for the beautiful variety of patterns and encourage everyone to keep on adding to the collection.
