Puzzles, Boxes and Toys: Creative Scroll Saw Patterns

For anyone with a basic knowledge of the scroll saw, this book presents an assortment of project plans, ranging from simple toys and outdoor ornaments to elaborate tables and cabinets. Most are suitable for beginners with a modest collection of tools, but some are designed to challenge more experienced woodworkers. Taking full advantage of the scroll saw's ability to pierce wood and to perform very intricate cuts, Percy Blanford provides plans for making house signs and numbers, pull-along and assembly toys, shelves and book racks, clock cases and jewelry boxes, doll houses, and much more. Many of the projects also have wood, metal and plastic parts incorporated into their designs. Each comes with a drawing of the finished piece, illustrated, step-by-step instructions, and a materials list.
