A scroll saw is a real tool
At the community woodshop where I used to do my work, as well as in some woodworking magazines, scroll saws are not considered "real tools". As I began to explore the potential of the saw, I realized that I could achieve many of the effects obtained with those "real" tools, and with much greater safety.
Scrolling is fun and easy to learn
So is cake decorating
Hello Carole
ReplyDeleteMy name is Doug Drysdale and I live in Riverport Nova Scotia Canada. I am hoping to make one of your bowls found in the holiday 2009 edition of SCROLLSAW. I was quite concerned about doing angles so when I saw this video, it really helped me out. I have been making Christmas ornaments for a number of years but this will be my first attempt at bowls. They are beautiful. I will start my first one the end of March. Thanks for the tips.

Carole,
ReplyDeleteI sat down at the computer tonight to ask you about the very question you answered in this video. I've just started making bowls from you book and find the starter hole to be my greatest source of irritation and extra work. Can't wait to get out into the shop tomorrow to try it again with your hints in mind.
Thank you so much!
