Hello to all in the scrollsawing section, this morning I joined UK workshop forums and have only just got around to finding this noble section.
I think I have conversed with Gill in the Diamond forums, in fact I think it was her who gave me the url to this place some months ago, well I have finally arrived! Lol.
I have been a woodworker since a young lad when you could buy Fish and chips for one shilling, I have always been a fan of Fretwork since both my late Father and Grandfather were fretworkers, I have been interested in the original Hobbies company from Dereham and have a huge collection of their old patterns dating back to the 1920's up until their demise in the late 1960's.
I own a Hegner, Diamond and one of those cheap Wickes fretsaws (which was given to me) I like using the hegner best as it is so smooth and quiet running.
This is a little cupboard I made using the Hegner -:
