5.0 out of 5 stars
A necessary resource for those who enjoy creating their own toy puzzles from wood,
By Charles Ashbacher (Marion, Iowa United States) - See all my reviews (TOP 500 REVIEWER) (VINE VOICE) (HALL OF FAME REVIEWER)
This review is from: Puzzles in wood
As a longtime subscriber to "Journal of Recreational Mathematics" and a reader of puzzle books, I have seen many puzzles that involve dissection and reassembly. Therefore, I took an immediate interest to this book when I encountered it in a used bookstore. It was designed to be a book of problems for students in a woodworking shop, and many of the creations are identical to what I have seen in print.
The puzzles start fairly simply but quickly reach the point where significant woodworking talent would be needed to make them. If you are looking for challenging and interesting projects in woodworking, this book contains enough to keep you busy for some time. Also, properly done, the products will keep anyone trying to solve the puzzles engaged for a significant length of time.

If you have a scroll saw you will love this book. The patterns are simple to follow and the puzzles easy to create out of scrap wood. It will keep your friends, children, and grandchildren happily busy for hours figuring out the solutions.
