We all have 'rough' days but I think I can speak for all on here that we find our Scrollsaws a place of peace. I feel so much better when I'm cutting. I too like you never even knew what a scrollsaw was before my husband bought me one, but like you I joined this family and with their help and advice so freely given, I've gone from strength to strength, and so will you. Enjoy the journey, I know I'm constantly amazed that I went from my little 'witch' to my 'gorilla' in just 12 months.
