Greetings

Hello Everyone! My name is Peter and I live in Maryland USA. I just recently discovered Papercraft and am looking forward to getting started in this wonderful hobby. This past weekend I went out and bought the tools needed to get started.

Welcome Peter. Start with simple models and work your way up, may people bite off to much at first and get frustrated and quit. Take time to build up your skills and you'll be hooked, hey it's cheep fun.....Rich

Welcome aboard! Buying tools? A bit 'o Elmer's glue and a small scissors should get you going (says the guy with two boxes of assorted knives, scissors, glues, mandrels/round things, scoring tools, PVC plumbing bits, card scraps, dowels & skewers, colored markers, blocks of wood ...).

Enjoy!
