I bought my first scrollsaw, Delta Milwaukee Homecraft 16”, Rockwell Mfg. (made in 1955 of which I still have), back in the early 1960’s. I scrolled out a couple small projects and did not do any scrolling again until I started Custom Scrolling Only in 1999. I focus mainly on scrolling portraits of people, but you will notice here on my website I also do plaques, desk name plates, scenes in slabs of wood and many other items.

I am a Charter Member of the Scrollsaw Association of the World (S.A.W.). S.A.W. held a Conference in Cedar Rapids, Iowa in April, 2000 where I entered a Lineman Plaque and received a Red Ribbon in the Adult Original Division.

In November, 2004 at a wood workers show held in Des Moines, Iowa, I entered an eight (8) foot cherry slab (1 solid piece) with three (3) wolf scenes scrolled in it. I received a Red Ribbon for that and I also had entered five (5) portraits and received a White Ribbon in the Scrollsaw Division.
