Do you have an original project you have made from your own ideas? Do you think your fellow scroll sawyers would enjoy making it? If so, we might be interested in it!

Although our in-house staff designs most of our own projects, Scroller is sometimes interested in purchasing the rights to independently designed, original projects that we feel our customers might enjoy making.

The amount of payment we offer depends upon many variables—the originality and salability of the concept, the amount of work it will take for our staff to create a marketable pattern from the concept and the amount of catalog space it will take to properly promote such a project.

Upon a favorable review of your Submittal, we will contact you with further details. If you do not hear from us within 90 days, you should assume your project did not receive a favorable review. Because of the volume of Submittals we receive, we cannot guarantee acknowledgement of individual Submittals nor return of materials sent.

Thank you for thinking of Scroller. We look forward to reviewing the original scroll sawing project presented in your Submittal.

As you might expect, Scroller receives numerous information packets on original scroll sawing projects (Submittals), everything from project concepts to professionally drawn and packaged patterns ready for resale. Further, Scroller’s own in-house staff of artists and designers is continuously researching and creative brainstorming for ideas for its own new scroll saw projects, and, as a result, has built its own extensive collection of thousands of design ideas and conceptual sketches which it draws upon prior to publishing each catalog.

In making your Project Submittal, you must understand the above and also that:

1. Scroller has received and in the future will receive Submittals by numerous third parties that may contain concepts similar to what is contained in your Submittal.
2. Scroller may already have been working on, prior to its receipt of your Submittal, project concepts similar to what is contained in your Submittal.
3. There is no legal protection available (including copyright) for the ideas themselves that may be contained within your Submittal.
4. You have no current financial interest in or contractual relationship with Scroller.
5. Materials sent to Scroller will not be returned
6. You will be entitled to compensation with respect to the Submittal only if, along with your Submittal, you send us a signed cover letter as detailed above, receive a subsequent Proposal and enter into a formal, binding, written Contract with Scroller.
