OverviewWoodimals are entertaining puzzles made in the shapes of familiar animals that incorporate the letters of the animal's name right in the design. They put a delightful spin on the classic scroll saw puzzle by appealing to two different levels of perception at once-the shape of the creature plus a clever presentation of its name. Woodimal creator Jim Sweet shows you how to make 56 of his most intriguing critters in this pattern-packed book. Woodimals spells fun for all ages. Educational, decorative and enjoyable, they provide hours of fun for anyone with a scroll saw who likes to make wooden puzzles. Turn your workshop into a classroom for your children or grandchildren, and present them with an engaging and interactive learning experience. These interlocking animal puzzles make perfect gifts for young children just learning how to read. The books starts out with two step-by-step projects to introduce you to the basics of scrolling and mounting a Woodimal puzzle, along with recommendations about the types of wood to use, adding details, and finishing. The patterns are drawn in fine lines, making cutting with a thin scroll saw blade both easy and achievable. Inside you'll find 56 creative animal puzzle patterns, including: - Popular Pets-Golden Retriever, Labrador, and Poodle Patterns - Farm Animals-Rooster, Cow, and Horse Patterns - Sea Creatures-Dolphin, Whale, and Shark Patterns - Woodland Wildlife-Deer, Wolf, and Fox Patterns - American Classics-Bison, Eagle, and Bear Patterns - Exotic Animals-Flamingo, Giraffe, and Tiger Patterns.
