Book Description

August 1998
Renowned rustic furniture maker Daniel Mack has created a richly evocative work that brings to life the longstanding allure of building with tree materials personally collected from the woods. With a lively text and more than 250 photographs in both color and black and white, see how to collect, store, and dry wood. Then learn all about the basic tools and techniques needed to make any piece of rustic furniture and accessories. There are easy-to-follow plans for making 30 appealing projects -- try a child's chair, a headboard, a side table, and a picture frame. Or you can make several classic and time-tested projects from books and plans published in the early 1900s, including an outdoor picnic table, a tree chair and a settee. Brimming with ideas for woodworkers, Mr. Mack encourages readers "to find the chair in the trees" by letting the materials themselves suggest what and how to build. The color gallery of fabulous pieces showcases the works of talented contemporary rustic makers who use a wide range of styles, including bentwood, stick, log, burl, mosaic twig, and bark applique. Bonus: stunning examples of Mr. Mack's own acclaimed works are featured.
