Title: Bonjour everybody
Post by: Rob the Frenchman on April 20, 2010, 01:17:39 pm
I am Robert from France (as you might have guessed from my username!) I am 60 and a bit and in 51 working days I shal retire after 42 years of attempting to teach your wonderful language to thousands of French students. I picked up scrolling a few months ago thanks to Steve Good I must say and I am now really looking forward to having time to spend on my saw...I also decided to get into wood turning so ....I shall have a lot of practice to put in before achieving anything worthwhile but I am patient....
Good day to you all and long life to the new community!

I think if you take your time and do small projects first, with patients you will be having fun and scrolling away in no time. Hi I'm Russ from Florida. Welcome to the Scrollsaw Forum. A project a day will keep the doctor away LOL... 8)
