Author Howard Clements is an award-winning scroll saw artist who has been addicted to woodworking for more than 65 years. In addition to making wooden toys and other small items, Howard makes models for use in lawsuits and in the courtroom. Making Tiny Toys in Wood is his first book.
The book begins with information on materials, tools, and scroll saw basics, to help get you on the path to a successful project. The author then takes you step-by-step through making a Bulldozer toy, with simple techniques you can apply to every project. Each of the 14 cool designs that follow provides complete full-size patterns, materials and parts lists, and helpful construction notes.
These simple scroll saw projects don’t take a lot of time, wood, or tools to make. You can create them assembly-line style and fill a tree—or make a lot of gifts—with just an afternoon’s work, all while quickly clearing your shop of accumulated wood scraps. Better yet, get a youngster or two involved in the cutting, painting, and assembling!
