Description

This book is designed to stimulate individual design ideas for the woodturner who has had some experience and wants to move on to produce his or her own projects. The book encourages readers to draw inspiration from a variety of sources, while offering guidelines and advice on translating that inspiration into new designs. The fundamental relationship between design and technique is explored carefully throughout the book, with examples showing how different design requirements have a bearing on choosing the best production techniques. In addition to covering design and technique, the author also explores proportion, function, unusual and sought-after timbers, sapwood and burrs, drying and finishing.
