Thanks so much for this Lesley ! I started following you on all your socials which led me to a November Scroll Saw purchase, and now have just finished my 2nd project. You inspired me and I love the amount I've learned from your easy to follow and informative instruction. Thanks again !!!

Can you please tell me what your most popular size wood round/backer is? I am trying to decide if I should bite the bullet and buy my band saw now or if I should just purchase the mdf rounds to start. Part of that is calculating how many rounds I can get out of one sheet of mdf. Thank you! -Cristi

Where do you get mdf from? I’ve been on the hunt an cannot find anything like what your using.

What software would draw the lines for you? Im terrible at spotting the areas to draw myself. And love watching your stories. Your work is awesome!

[@OakAndFeatherDecor]

I’ve seen people use rapid resizer which is a website, and some people use procreate? I just draw by hand because that’s easiest for me but for sure some apps Out there that can help
