Description

This is the book woodturners have been waiting for -- the first complete reference from David Ellsworth, the "grandfather" of the contemporary wood art movement. Never before has the grandmaster of woodturning provided everything woodworkers and artists need to know to replicate his highly evolved techniques and signature style. Step-by-step directions and crisp, absorbing photos show exactly how Ellsworth creates an open bowl, a natural-edged bowl, and an astounding hollow vessel featuring a tiny opening and coin-thin walls. For anyone new to the lathe, Ellsworth on Woodturning provides expert tips for getting started. Intermediate and advanced turners will appreciate advice on everything from working with green wood to design to tool making and sharpening.
