A good illustration is worth a thousand wood chips! Here at last is a woodcarving book that lays the projects out chip-by-chip, with drawing-after-drawing to teach the craft in the most accurate way possible. With this book beginners don't have to guess how to position the knife or where to chip away. Clearly, explicitly, taking an many drawings as necessary Chr(45) sometimes up to 50 for one project Chr(45) the authors guide you through each project to the completion of handsome, useful, realistic finished pieces. The ten projects are actually ten lessons for building skill in carving techniques and developing confidence and proficiency in this age-old craft.Schroeder, Roger is the author of 'Woodcarving Illustrated/Book 1', published 1983 under ISBN 9780811722711 and ISBN 0811722716.
