Personal Review: 50 Easy Weekend Scroll Saw Projects by
John A. Nelson
This is an excellent collection of interesting patterns for the beginning to
intermediate scroll saw artist. There is a brief introduction that includes tips
on wood selection, use of patterns and finishing. There is also a list of
suppliers. Familiarity with the scroll saw process is assumed and the
patterns can be resized on a copier to fit your needs. Many of the patterns
are versatile and can be used for different applications.Although there are
a few of the standard cute animal wall hangings, shelves and such I found
many different and useful ideas here. There are Chinese character trivets
that go with my Oriental themes and a nice puzzle ball. I think the

outstanding piece in the book is a free-standing plant stand that can be
sized as needed. This beautiful item is shown on the front cover and is a
solid piece of furniture that could be enlarged to be an occasional table
with a multitude of uses. A wastepaper basket and flower pot stand in a
similar style are also included.There are a number of very nice corner and
wall shelf patterns with sophisticated designs including wildlife and a
beautiful ballerina. Another of my favorites is a mirror frame capped with a
delicate scroll work pattern. With all the scroll saw pattern books out there
I found this one to have plenty of unique and useful projects to make it a
welcome addition to any collection.
