 Advice on how you can improve your scrolling can be found by simply asking your last customer, family member, or neighbor. The best advice can be found by asking other scrollers. Saw has gathered on these pages some information that has been printed in our newsletter, some that can be found on the internet, and some from scrollers who are willing to share and be helpful to other scrollers. You will also find some useful charts provided by scrollsaw industry vendors. We are always looking for new tips and techniques, so if you know a tip or a technique that is not listed here, please use the form on the right to send it to us. We will gladly post your tip on the internet and publish it in SAW Dust.

There are always some sites and ideas that do not fit readily into any category. The Pattern Creation site and Translation of web sites are two of those. These are sites that you will want to bookmark as you will find yourself returning again and again.

Translation of web sites

We have found a service on the net that will allow you to view any web site in a translated version.  To use this service to translate this site, you will need to return to the Home page, click on the language of your choosing. Once the first page is translated, you can then navigate the site using the navigation available at the site, and get each new page translated as you go.  For our foreign language visitors you can get this site translated into your choice of
 
bullet Spanish
bullet French
bullet German
bullet Italian
bullet Portugese
bullet Japanese
bullet Chinese
bullet Taiwan - Traditional Chinese 
 
For our English speaking visitors, you will not need this service to view this site. But, if you find a site in a Language from the above list, you can also use this service to get a translated version. Click here for the translation service.

Note:  As with most translation software, you will probably not get a 100% accurate translation, but you should get a translation that will allow you to comprehend most of the web site you are viewing. 

Pattern Maker

SAW has developed a Pattern Generator very similar to Frank Swoboda's program and that is available in the Members section of the web site. In addition to creating a text pattern, several of the font choices available from SAW will produce a pattern for the base of the letters also. Directions can be found on the Pattern Generator page.

Frank Swoboda has redone his Pattern Maker where you can enter text and create a pattern of your text.
