What a lovely gift to give, very well done, "Scroll saw Village has talent "

Roly it must be the Coke, I can't see anything either Les

I feel for you Doc. I did two craft markets over the weekend, the early Saturday morning market was a flop, I spent more money on coffee there then what I made in sales, (coffee may still bankrupt me yet) but did get three orders which I hope to have ready before next weekend, so it was not a total loss. and in the afternoon the wind came up and nearly blew us away at the second market, I did at least cover stall costs there,and then when we were packing up the late afternoon the organizers refunded our stall costs in lew of wind we had to put up with, which was a first for me. Have not made my first million yet but working hard at getting it How does the saying go "Another day another dollar million days millionaire" Les.

Greetings to all my fellow scrollers, I dont know if this idea has come up before in any of the forums, I was busy cutting some 6mm ply and got the idea to cut a good straight line, what I did was clamp a true straight edge to the scroll saw, and using a FD #3 spiral flat end blade and the straight edge a a guide, got a neat result, the blade can be used from all sides just by moving the straight edge to a different angle. hope someone can make use of the idea. Les.

Hi Tim, Welcome from a cold and windy Durban South Africa, Sorry about the Rugby Les.

I use CA glue when I do stack cutting on ply, a tiny drop on each corner between layers clamp for a few seconds and away I go, the glued corners are going to be waste anyway, saves time taping all the layers together. Les.

Ditto to the above advice, nice first project, you are going to have a lot of fun scrolling, enjoy!

Hi all, I first of all want to say you guys are "AMAZING" Thank you for the prompt and helpful ideas that come forth, I pop a question go to bed and on awaking have an answer, thank you so much for all your effort The project I want to do is the name Michelle I will play around with the Pacifico font and see how it goes, and thanks Katie for the mini tutorial, that will be helpful, with other ideas I have, "Phew! " so many ideas and so few hours in a day. Thanks again Les

Thanks for the advice folks, I have taken note of your suggestions, I was thinking along the lines of the "Brush script mt" font but with more body to the letters as I want it to be able to hold its self together without a supporting underline as it will be {hopefully} about 600mm (24inches) in length. it needs to look "girly" it's for my niece. Thanks. Les.

Greetings from South Africa, I was wondering if any of you good folk out there could help me out, I am looking for a font that can be used for word art, I need ideas for a flowing type font not too box like, the fonts I have checked on dafont.com are not quite what I am looking for, ok! I have not checked them all, as there are literally hundreds of them, I was hoping that I could take a short cut and maybe get some help or push in the right direction from a kind fellow scroller , any help would be gratefully appreciated. Thanking you. Les.

Hi Dan, welcome from Durban South Africa, I am sure you will feel at home here among scrolling friends it's a great place to be. Les.

You are in my prayers

Good morning all, hope your day/night is going well, I need a bit of advice on finishing off projects, I have been finish coating my projects by hand which is a real pain in the neck, and was wondering, as to what route I should go in getting a spray system, I don't have loads of space in my work shop, I was thinking of getting either a airless spray gun or an air brush, can anyone pass on a bit of their expertise as to my request. Thanking you Les.
