J. Schofield said Worth more than the price. I purchased this book because I was looking for some new whirligig plans. I was pleasantly surprised to see that it was that and more. The author shows you some good plans, but also gives you enough information to come up with your own designs. If you enjoy making whirligigs and how they work, this book is a good buy. "Just what I was looking for." according to JD Jones. Lots of detailed diagrams on how to make these cute whirlygigs.But be careful where you put yours they will disappear from your front yard if you're not careful!!. not worth it for me too complicated.
