Workshop Challenge - Scroll Saw Challenge
jacques45 replied to Travis's topic in General Scroll Sawing
The first pic is from today. The others from a few months ago. Small, cramped, cluttered, and dusty, but it's mine. When we built our house, I had the extra bay built with a wall and door between it and where we park our cars. I built the floor furniture. Everything but the two work benches (far wall and far left) are on casters. I put my bench grinder on my table saw when I shape my intarsia pieces. Most all my projects are scrolling, with an occasional honeydo for the house. I give the shop and tools a good cleaning between most projects.

A neighbor recently asked me to make something for her husband's 75th birthday, I modified the birthday cake pattern I purchased from https://www.scrollsawartist.com/birthday-cake-with-numbers.html.
It was well received, and I've made a few others since, each personalized with a name, but this is the only golfer's tribute I have cut.

In the beginning, I probably would have been voted the scroller most likely to never make anything that people would like. But with my wfe's encouragement , cajoling, and downright lying about my "really good results," I gained some confidence and have produced some passable works. So I am elevating myself from the level of poor, to semi-poor. Like most of you, I am in it for the fun of it. If it puts a few bucks in my pocket, an extra cup of coffee is all I ask for.

Is there an accreditation that goes with scrolling, for example, what is the criteria for becoming a Master Scroller and any levels below that? Is there a certification process, or is an individual's expertise self-declared?
