Compiled by master craftsman Patrick Spielman, this compilation offers the finest selection of decorative patterns and ideas for scroll-saw cutting. Woodworkers will derive inspiration from well over 100 projects originally created by Dirk Boelman, America's leading scroll-saw pattern designer. There's something for everyone and every taste: Halloween and Christmas ornaments; three-dimensional birds that look as if they're about to take flight; marching animals; man-in-the-moon earrings; a Victorian doll table and chair; and more.
Jerry Madden, Associate Director of the Flight Projects Directorate at NASA's Goddard Space Flight Center, collected these gems of wisdom over a number of years from various unidentified sources. Rod Stewart of Mobile Data Services in Huntsville, Alabama edited and updated them. Over time, the NASA link disappeared, so this version of the rules was preserved to make sure that it stayed available. We have kept a copy posted continuously since the early nineties as a respectful tribute to Jerry's practical wisdom and good natured vision of excellence.

You'll be amazed to find Hamilton busily introducing new characters, new plots, and new enigmas up to the very end. After all this time can he possibly surprise us? Absolutely.
