Supportive book for beginners,
By A Customer
This review is from: Scroll Saw Workbook (Paperback)
I am a beginner with a scroll saw and was very pleased to find Mr. Nelson's workbook. Although I have not yet begun the exercises (I intend to start this weekend), I have read all the chapters and am very excited. He starts out with just the basics (following lines and making turns) and works on up including stack cutting and creating a cute fish puzzle. Each lesson teaches you something new and in practicing the lesson you produce a finished project. I definately recommend this book.

I acquired a scroll saw a couple of months ago and was lucky enough to receive this book for Christmas this year. The practice exercises were exactly what I needed to gain skills in using my saw.I'd recommend this book to anyone that needs to develop some base skill level.
