I am looking for some patterns for my new scroll. I would appreciate
anything you can share. I would like to get a nice pattern of a large
mouth bass. But I'm not picky.
This should do it. You can google if you need more.

Here is a Yahoo Group for Scrollsawing. You have to subscribe to get
access to the site but it is well worth the effort. The group is
tightly moderated so you don't have to worry about spam. They have over
500 free patterns at this point and a great network of users.

You are a card!!! I darned near fell over when I saw this "pattern".
Excuse the pun...
Here is some info I have pulled from several messages on the wreck
about scrollsawing. I have left the original posting name where I
could, and I hope they won't be angry at me for doing this but the
previous follow up post was not so helpful...
Thanks to everybody for the helpful info, and I am sure that it will
help the gentleman get sawdusty, and right into this fun and rewarding
hobby.
MSN Groups: Free Scrollsaw Patterns:
http://groups.msn.com
(You have to join the group)
There are other newsgroups / forums dedicated to scrollsaw,
but they don't offer free patterns.
If you are new to scrollsaw, visit Rick's place, read up on blade
choices:
http://www.scrollsaws.com/
When you get further into it, you'll probably want to do more
complicated patterns that have lots of fretwork (inside cuts) and
complexity. For these, go to either WildWood Designs
(www.wildwooddesigns.com) or the Berry Basket (www.berrybasket.com).
These places also sell clock inserts and parts.
Blades are important. The best blades are Flying Dutchman. You can
get
these from Mike's Workshop (www.mikesworkshop.com).
As far as adhering the pattern to the wood, first, cover the wood with
blue painters' tape, use a spray adhesive such as 3M 77, Scotch Bond,
etc. to adhere the pattern to the tape then cover with clear packing
tape. The tapes lubricate the blade which helps reduce burning of the
wood. I'd suggest picking up any "basics" book from Patrick Spielman
as well as the video "Scollsaw Fretworking A-Z" which you can get
direct from the source on e-bay for about $15.

There are any number of ways to transfer the pattern. Rubber cement
for a paper copy is the most obvious, but there are other glues as
well. Aleene's Tacky Glue is also well known. You can find it at most
craft chains, such as JoAnne's, A.C.Moore, etc.
I have a Dremel 1680, but no room to work with it right now.

Please delete the ".removethis" in my email address as this is there for spam control.
Thanks!
