Book Overview
Using over 230 color photographs, an introductory text about basic wood turning techniques, and step-by-step instructions, Mike Cripps guides his reader through the turning of bird houses, planters, and bulb planters known in England as "garden dibbers." The bird house and planter projects are turned from unseasoned lumber. New hobbyists and seasoned professional wood turners alike will enjoy this book and the freedom they will derive from turning unseasoned timber, which is free from dust and needs virtually no sanding or difficult-to-apply glossy finish. A color photo gallery will fire the wood turner's imagination. Patterns are provided for each project.

Published by JC , 3 years ago
This book has three projects as illustrated on the cover. I do not think it is worth the ten dollars I paid for it. The photography quality is lacking. The detail in the pictures are too dark. It lacks critical details like sizes of some of the projects. This is geared to the beginner but there are many better books available. Some of the problems with this book may be attributed to the publisher. Save your money. Better books for wood turners, anything by Richard Raffan, Ernie Conover
