Very high level overview.

It’s Fox chapel, so it’s well done. But really more of a high level overview. Maybe a good choice if you are thinking about getting a scroll saw, but if you really want to learn how to use it, I’d spurge for Fox Chapel’s Scroll Saw Workbook instead which also has similar topics in more detail.

Not worth it!

If it had patterns in the back that could be cut out or copied it maybe would be. I don't think it's worth more then a $1. Same information easily found on the web

Very informative.

You get a lot of info from this book. My husband can use it a lot. Tells what blades to use, and when to use them. It can be very helpful. A test page is on the end of the book. Its not very thick. The price was high. But if you think of all you get from it? To see it being used made me happy. I recommend it for a gift to users of this saw.
