Scroll Sawing

Scrolling the Duke


We received a lot of letters over the past year asking us to include scroll sawing in Woodezine. The problem was that we didn't know a lot about it, so we had to find an expert to help us out - much in the way that Alan Mansfield and the Redbridge Marquetry Group have so graciously created our marquetry section. We spent a while looking at various options, and then one day we spoke with Alan Giagnocavo, the publisher of Scroll Saw Workshop magazine. This is a quarterly full-color publication that was exactly what we were looking for. Alan and his team cover the entire gamut of scroll sawing, including related fields like intarsia. They rely heavily on reader input, which in turn means that the magazine addresses those areas of most concern and interest to the folks actually doing the scroll sawing.

So, here's the deal. Each month, Woodezine will bring you an article from the archives of Scroll Saw Workshop. The article will be actual scanned pages from past issues, uploaded at 150 dpi so that you can read them easily online. If you like what you see, click on the FREE Issue Offer below, and Alan will send you an actual print issue to evaluate. The current (Spring 2005) issue is 82 color pages with a complete set of pull-out patterns.


Project #1
This project comes from the Fall 2000 issue of Scroll Saw Workshop. It's called "Scrolling the Duke" and is six pages long. Click on the small images below to go to the full-size pages. Then go to Page Setup and choose 60%, and you can print each page full-size. (You may have to tweak the percentage a little to make the page 7-1/2" wide, depending on your printer.)
