An anthology featuring the first 20 articles from the series which appears in each issue of "Woodturning" magazine. The book gives an insight into the life and craftsmanship of one of the last working turners with a knowledge of traditional hardwood and ivory skills. Every chapter covers a different aspect of turning: making and modifying tools, working with bone, ivory and alternative synthetic materials, getting the most from overhead gears and variable speed, finding inspiration and adapting designs, developing skills, and restoring damaged pieces.
