| Scrollsaw toy plans. One of the books I got this summer is a book by Ivor Carlyle, its title is Scrollsaw toy Projects. I just googled his name and it is available here. $20.00 in the us. It is a collection of train, plains and vehicles all made from thin plywood.
It covers how to make the little people and every thing else. I must have 20 books on toys and this one is so far above all the others I have or seen. It is full of clear color pictures on how to build each project.
I will show 2 pictures, one of the cargo plane and the other of the ambulance. They are not great pictures but the book is 183 pages of real good clear plans and pictures.
My grand daughter is only 1 and the next one is still being baked but I will be making all 8 projects in this book.
Sorry its not a Fox book but it is a must see for grand parents.

| Calling me won't do you any good as the copyright rules say you have to buy your own book.
I was in a used book store in Washington state this summer and they had two 4' shelves full of books on wooden childrens toys. It took me 2 hours to decide which 7 or 8 books to buy.
So heads up people, go look at those stores and maybe save a ton of money.

| Alan
Allow me to clarify, it wasn't to ask for patterns, but the name of the book. I should have been more clear. I buy many books and have more than I will ever cut.
