Description:
Green woodturning--turning fresh lumber straight from the log--brings the craftsman in contact with the living, growing tree, and reveals its special warmth, durability, color, and grain patterns. Above all, with green wood it`s possible to produce bowls and goblets of such delicacy that they appear translucent. Aided by spectacular photographs, a foremost exponent of the style tells how to harvest and store green wood; explains all the intricacies of tools and techniques; helps you anticipate the natural changes green wood undergoes as it dries; and reveals the mysteries of the most admired skills in the craft. Six stunning projects develop your expertise, including a very thin, almost transparent cross-grain bowl and a fine, natural-edge end-grain goblet.
