Joliveira,
I have a very good customer in this city: Barao d.s. Joao, Algarve.
If you know where that is, email me. He knows a lot about scroll sawing.

I wish I could help you. I did however, when I was in high school, used to date an exchange student from Brazil, who spoke portuguese. All I got to say about that is.... YOWZA YOWZA YOWZA!

Good times, good times!

Oh yeah, welcome to the forum! Hope you find it as great of a learning aid as I have!

Hi Joliveira
Welcome to the Club. I would suggest, do as about 40000 of your countrymen, come to Luxembourg. Here you can find scrolls saws in evrey big store, from cheap to expensive.
Or try the internet, however here the transportation charges might be high.
But be aware, the first time you have tried a scroll saw you are lost. You have to scroll, you will get addicted, you can't leave your workshop, you will like the sawdust, you ....

Thank you all for the welcome!

3_M i live in Lisbon, but i know (almost) all places in Portugal, its a small country.

m_r_dxn thanks! Portuguese is the official language in Brazil... but Brazil is a bigger country.

gschmitz maybe you can point me to some online stores from Luxembourg (or other european countries). and yes im aware of that addiction

Welcome to the site . You might try contacting Pedro .Scroll saw patterns - fretwork. He is in Spain and sells patterns and may have a source for saws.
Good luck .
