Buy Woodimals: Creative Animal Puzzles for the Scroll Saw (Fox Chapel Publishing) 56 Fun Patterns in the Shape of Animals with the Animal's Name Inside the Design: Lion, Dolphin, Poodle, Owl, & Much More Illustrated by Jim Sweet (ISBN: 9781565237483) from desertcart's Book Store. Everyday low prices and free delivery on eligible orders. Review: Great patterns - Great patterns and a good range of animals list at the end of the book so you can get more I will definitely be getting some of these would definitely recommend it if you want to make puzzles for children or as ornaments Review: Well worth considering - This is a great book, full of inspiring ideas, with projects which are not too taxing for someone with basic scrollsaw skills. Some of the woodimals, such as the elephant and dachshund, are particularly appealing. At first sight it seems biased towards American creatures, but in fact out of the 56 patterns, there are 5 fish, 17 dogs, 12 North American animals and 22 from other continents. It's a bit heavy on the dogs, and some of the names take a bit of looking at to work out. There is a step-by-step guide to the cutting of the first animal, a lion, and it should be fairly straightforward to work out the others. There is a list of around 400 patterns in the back, which can be downloaded from Jim Sweet's website: they cost 5 dollars each. For anyone serious about cutting the whole set, it's cheaper to buy the DVD at 144 dollars plus shipping. You'd need to make an awful lot of sales to cover that cost. One very minor improvement to the patterns would be an indication of grain orientation for best effect (there is a note for the flamingo to avoid breakage on the legs). In conclusion, this is a book worth getting to give you a lot of fun in being creative. The only trouble is, where are you going to put them all?

I love this book. I immediately started making the puzzles for Christmas gifts. The book is clear, clean, stiff covers. My friends want to borrow it. Well. Drawn picturws, very little modifications are needed. Fun to cut patterns too.

Die Tiernamen sind auf englisch -no na-, lassen sich aber mit wenig Übung umzeichnen. Und genau dann erfüllt das Buch seinen Zweck: Man kann sehr schnell so ziemlich jedes Bild in ein Puzzle umzeichnen. 1 Stern Abzug, da für diesen Preis das Buch doch sehr dünn ist. Im Anhang sind zwar noch fast alle Tiere erhältlich, aber nur auf der Webseite des Herstellers und kostenpflichtig.
