Hi, im Kym. From SA.
Just received a scroll saw.. (literally last week) :yippee:
did have one previously that is now MIA, through moving house, and never thought of replacing.. As i never found time to get involved.
But now im looking forward to learning something that has already become a bit of an addiction :p
Finally got to get some cutting done yesterday.. and didnt want to get off..
Made up a couple of dragon toys.

Anyway, im 41, married, 4 kids.. 1 granddaughter.. (who loves cars and trains, and was my main reason for researching the replacement saw )
My hubby has always been the woodworker of the family, (pens, bowls, furniture etc) So hopefully i wont cramp his style in the man cave :)

I can tend to be a bit quiet at times.. But im looking forward to hopping around and reading up and hopefully meeting some locals as well that can offer hints to a newbie :D

:2tsup:
