Success with Scrollsaws

Virtually any shape you can trace--a leaf or a flower, a teddy bear or duck--can be cut out of wood easily and safely with the help of a scrollsaw. Even a beginner will get impressive results making the charming and useful projects shown and explained here. Directions and patterns are included for such kitchen items as a Hyacinth-Macaw Key Holder and Maple-leaf Trivets; bathroom accessories, such as the Tropical Fish Towel Rail; a Teddy Bear Coat Rack for a child's room; and various garden projects, from a birdhouse to a seed organizer. This is the perfect introduction to an absorbing hobby, covering everything from buying the saw to applying finish to the completed work.
