Another New Texas Scroller - Scroll Saw Woodworking & Crafts Message Board

Howdy All:

I've only been scrolling for a few months. Occupationally, I'm a teacher and I've found scrolling to be wonderful for taking my mind off educational issues. I've just started making signs for my co-workers and here is an example:

I'm enjoying reading about techniques and finding patterns. It's good to be here.

Welcome Mryan11, glad you stopped by. Your cutting looks very nice. Did you take a picture of it? Its fun to keep a portfolio of stuff you make. Some people date and signs them too.
Come by often, we love new members, so much to learn from each other.

Thank you all for the warm welcome. I've learned a lot rummaging through the posts. I'm finding out that designing something can often take far longer than actually cutting it. Joining the site has opened a lot of avenues and brought a lot of ideas to my attention. Thanks!
