The Summer 2017 issue of Scroll Saw Woodworking & Crafts is packed with step-by-step projects, full-size patterns, fascinating features, and new techniques! We report on the release of two entirely new scroll saws—one from Jet and one from Seyco. Our editors tested both machines and give you their unbiased report on each. Lath art is making a comeback, and our tutorial gets you started in this beautiful method of making pictures from cut, pieced, and painted wood. There are plenty of ideas to scroll for kids, with imaginative toys, an animated bedside lamp, and a colorful crawly critter mobile. Make earrings for Mom, a water lily box, or a fretwork swan scene. Or combine your love of fishing with your love of scroll sawing, by using scrap wood to craft functional fishing lures.
