Does any one happen to have this book. I've ordered a few scroll saw book from Amazon an this one came up as a recommendation. It looks like it might have some good projects in it and it under $10.00.Amazon.com: 50 Easy Weekend Scroll Saw Projects (9781565231085): John Nelson: Books I'm think it might be a good book to have for the grandkids and for me. Thanks for any feed back.

I don't have it. Come to think of it, I don't think I could do 50 projects in one weekend.Sawdust King

Since John Nelson is such a noted author, I would suggest checking a local library.
You can probably check the book out free and copy the patterns you want.

Let me show my ignorance. The posted price of this book is $9.95, yet it says 13 new for $7.99 and 27 used for $6.99. Why pay $9.99 if you can get it new for $7.99.
Am I missing something?Comment

You have to be used to Amazon. The 9.95 price is for Prime members, with free two-day shipping. When you check the vendors that sell for 7.99, you see that they are charging, $3+ for shipping, which effectively raises the price to over ten dollars.Originally posted by HAMMER View PostThe good woodworker does not craft the wood for honor.

Hammer, Tgiro is right. I'm an Amazon prime member so I get free two day shipping in some cases it only one day. I ordered a surge protector yesterday about 4:30pm it arrived today before 1:00pm. So the $9.95 is the lower price. Spirithourse I could see if my local library has the book and just makes copy's but I just don't feel right about doing that.Last edited by Band Saw Box; 03-07-2012, 01:32 PM.sigpic: Dan US Navy PR1 (Ret)

I have that book. I've not cut anything from it. I find Nelson's patterns to intricate for my taste. I don't recall any projects I think would be suitable for kids.

I have the book and like it. I enjoy the variety and most of the projects can be made out of plywood to see if you enjoy the style.
You may even come up with some ideas yourself once you look through it.
Libraries are a great source to look before you buy . No shame in grabbing a particular pattern if you don't want the whole book.
