Description - Woodcarving Basics: Techniques & Projects for the Beginning Woodcarver by Stephen Johnston
Geared toward hobbyists with no experience in woodworking, this guide presents 11 techniques, from cutting to etching to whittling, and concludes with four projects that include wooden spoons and a decoy. Starting with a list of supplies and tools, the chapters progressively increase the novice woodworker's comfort level with new techniques. More than 100 full-colour photographs accompany step-by-step instructions. AUTHOR: Stephen Johnston is a woodcarver and a longtime member of Northwest Wood Carvers Association. When not working his day job as a web developer, Stephen is busy woodcarving and teaching others how to do so via workshops, conferences, and the organisation's website. He sees traditional woodworking as a creative outlet and a form of slowing down and meditating. He lives in Eatonville, Washington.
