Attached to a scroll saw you can cut nested wooden spirals with this jig. Make two, three, four ... interlocking spirals that unwind/unscrew. Fascinating toys or art objects!

    Lets be honest here.. if everything had to be really useful.. we would have so many fewer toys :) and he who has the most toys (tools) when they die wins :)

    Thanks! I haven't found a practical use for this, but they are really fun to play with. The spirals also make nice little gifts, especially when you work with some beautiful wood combinations.

    Very true! I'm accumulating toys (tools) at a rate that is spiraling out of control
