3.0 out of 5 stars From the mind of an artistic craftsman/teacher...., August 26, 2001
By 
Vince Heyser (MI United States) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Veneering Marquetry & Inlay (Best of Fine Woodworking) (Paperback)
The title of this book says it all. It does cover Veneering, Marquetry and Inlay. The book is a collection of articles from Fine Woodworking. Therefore, if you have alot of fine woodworking magazines than several parts will look familiar. You will learn a fair amount about veenering from reading this book, most likely more than other veneering books. However, the Marquetry and Inlay sections are lacking. Most of the inlay was about "Inlayed Banding" which can add a nice touch to projects. This book also touches on some concepts I know would be difficult to find in any other book. For example, how to inlay silver and turquoise. Overall, this book will prove valuable to me as a reference for teaching. :)

This review is from: Veneering Marquetry & Inlay (Best of Fine Woodworking) (Paperback)
Ótimo, mas é necessario possuir uma pequena oficina, com o mínimo como serra circular, serra tico tico, etc. Muitos modelos, é bem detalhado. Monte sua oficina primeiro, depois compre ele e faça caixinhas belíssimas e bem acabadas (nada daquelas porcarias que vemos por aí).
