Great pictures, very systematic

I picked this book up mostly to learn more about steam bending, and found a lot more. The pictures and diagrams are very helpful, and there are a wide range of ideas which make construction of even very complex pieces sound easy.
Helpful for Steam Bending
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 18 years ago
I bought this book for my boyfriend who is starting his own drum making company. He found the information on steam bending to be very helpful. The table at the back which details the possible bent radius of different woods was also a plus. There's a good section on creating a steam box. It is simple to read with some projects at the back. Very condensed infomation. The boat building section is also a positive if steam bending is what you're interested in. Very Good
