Scroll Saw Basics by Patrick Spielman
Of all power tools, the scroll saw is the least intimidating for the beginning woodworker. While its simple operation and relative safety make it ideal for the casual hobbyist, it still finds occasional use by the experienced woodworker needing to make cuts of very precise design and close tolerances.
Spielman's modest guide provides a good overall introduction. Besides demonstrating fundamental techniques, the book also covers the saw itself, examining types of saws, desired features, characteristics of quality saws, and upgrading of lesser-quality saws.
It is extensively illustrated with hundreds of exceptionally clear black-and-white photos. Worthwhile for the hobby section of most public libraries.
Published/Edition: April 1991. ISBN/Book No.: 0806972246
