Newcastle Store - Beginner’s guide to Scroll Saws
FREE Woodworking Demonstration
Scroll Saws are a ‘go to’ craft machine - relatively safe and easy to use, with a myriad of creative possibilities in the hands of the imaginative user. Whether it’s making 2D and 3D puzzles, personalised name signs, silhouette art or decorations, a scroll saw can do it all. During this free step-by-step guide, store team members Mark and Matt will use the AC405SS Scroll Saw to demonstrate good machine safety and set up, explain the different blade and material choices available, as well as showcasing the techniques needed to make useful garden items such as plant pot stands. There’ll even be a chance for you to have a go yourself!
If you’re thinking of taking up a new hobby this is a great practical demonstration to get you started. Spaces are limited to 10, so please book early to avoid disappointment.
Depending on Government guidelines we may not be able to provide refreshments so please bring your own soft drinks. We kindly ask that you observe any safety measures in place within the store.
