Zilla,

I bought a scroll saw last week. Home depot was practically giving away a Dremel 16" so I bought it. I haven't used it yet, but thought that my first attempt might be a C5 emlem. What kind and thickness of wood do you recommend for a beginner? Do you print patterns from your PC and glue them to the wood? Any tips you could give me would be GREATLY appreciated.

Thanks, Jeff.

I print out a picture that I want to use then I transfer it to very thin cardboard and make a template so that it can be used over and over. The cartoon vette that I done for this thread, I use 1/4 inch Baltic Birch plywood and use Delta blades that are reverse tooth, these blade provide a better cut.

I have also made the corvette emblem.
