Hi, I just signed up for this bb. I am new to scrolling. I have been doing chip carving for a few years and carved some Christmas ornaments that were star shaped and needed to be cut out. I tried with my handy Japanese saw, but that was pretty much like work. I got a used Dremel (16", 2 spd, #1672)from a friend at work. I see now why it's so popular!
