First invented in Switzerland in 1796, music boxes have long been decorated using time-consuming hand-carving methods, but this new and revised edition of a popular scroll-saw woodworking manual offers designs that make the job much faster and more fun. Updated with 250 line drawings, the instructions include steps for cutting the base, frame, and turntable for a music box; a guide to assembling the pieces; tips on inserting the musical works; and shop-tested patterns for 100 intricate scroll-work turntable toppers with both Christmas and Victorian themes.

About the Author
Rick and Karen Longabaugh started The Berry Basket and Great American Scrollsaw Patterns-their family-owned online and mail order company, specializing in unique and useful scroll saw patterns and accessories-in the fall of 1990. What began as one set of collapsible basket patterns became a complete line of fullsize woodworking patterns and hard-to-find accessories. Rick has been featured on the popular PBS show The American Woodshop with Scott Phillips and also on the cover of Popular Woodworking magazine. Many of their unique projects have been published in a number of woodworking publications, including Wood magazine, Creative Woodworks & Crafts, Popular Woodworking, The Art of the Scroll Saw, Scroll Saw Workshop, and Patrick Spielman's Home Workshop News.

Reviews
If I had to rate this book on a scale from 1 to 10 I would have to give it a full 10. This is the nicest pattern book I have...my first impression was WOW. This is a very impressive pattern book. I own about 35 pattern books and this one is among the best.
