| Publisher Description: Inside this pattern book, scroll saw artists will find more than 50 beautifully rendered line patterns of some of the best-known animals in the world. Each of the more than 50 scroll saw patterns is given its own page in the book and each is reproduced full-size on that page. Beginning scrollers may opt to cut only the outline of the piece for a silhouette pattern of the animal, while more experienced scrollers may choose to make all the inside cuts to create a stunning image of the animal in wood. The book also includes basic cutting instructions to give beginning scrollers an idea of how to apply the patterns to their own projects. A gallery of finished pieces showcases a dozen of the patterns cut and finished in a variety of woods. Species featured include: lion, tiger, koala, kangaroo, panda, penguin, camel, elephant, monkey, gorilla, wolf, bear, antelope, polar bear, penguin, reindeer, elk, mountain goat, snake, jaguar, parrot and more. |
