homey I had gotten back into wood working about 5 years ago and had bought a Harbor Freight scroll saw and used it for my model building a little till it died.
Here's what I made for my first true scroll project. 2015

Now having the Dewalt it's a lot better can change the blades faster, from minutes to seconds. LOL
I'm still getting a feel for scroll sawing but have to do all my work from a chair, that's why I'm doing all the small stuff.

Beautiful work. A lot of what you do would possibly fit under the Intarsia umbrella I think. Maybe you should put some of those here as looking at the posts there it is a very slow forum and might give it a lift.
Whether you are toymaking or scrollsawing you are very talented in what you produce.
I don't believe we are able to get the DeWalt units out here but I may be wrong. Is this like what you have?

Top job looks good and reinforces the need for a quality scroll saw to do intricate cuts.

Good morning htl. Your work is outstanding and should encourage others to follow you. What I find most outstanding is that you are restricted to a chair as you put it. I am not restricted except for to many birthdays but what an out standing opening scrolling is for those who have had to take a change in life for one reason or another. If only those who are in need would just look into what a scroll saw can do for them especially those who have been into wood work and now find they have to give it up.

I agree with Tree Change that the forum has gone to sleep. What a shame. Yes it does need a shot in the arm other wise it will be lost.

You’ve certainly taken to this extremely quickly and well sir.
