With a scroll saw, some scrap wood, a touch of paint, and this book, you can create fascinating, movable toys from the past. Full-size patterns and plans for 19 pull-cord, hand-crank, and gravity-operated classics are offered.

You'll find a waddling shorebird, diving frog, strutting pig, creeping crocodile, scuttling beetle, and more than a dozen other toys that crawl, push, pull, rock, roll, bob, leap, spring, pivot, plummet, and zigzag.
