Some of the world's best woodturners explain how you can recreate their favorite projects. John Hunnex reveals how he transforms plywood into gallery-style bowls, and Robin Wood uses a pole lathe to make replicas of bowls and platters found aboard the Tudor warship. Reg Hawthorne explains cutouts as a way to add interest to turnings with pierced and carved flowers, vines, and insects, while Tom Crabb demonstrates making a bowl with handles. Other master craftworkers introduce intriguing items like a painted Celtic decoration; a three-footed leaf-shaped bowl; multi-center hollow forms; "throwing" pottery-style vases; and making a large, oval, wane-edged bowl from green wood. Dozens more projects will quickly bring an expert sense of design and quality to all your work. 120 pages (all in color), 8 1/4 x 11 3/4.

1.0 out of 5 stars
Disappointing at best,
By Patrick Christopher (Baltimore, MD United States) - See all my reviews
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Woodturning: Bowls, Platters, Hollow Forms, Vases, Vessels, Bottles, Flasks, Tankards, Plates (Paperback)
I purchased this book expecting some serious tutorials/instruction on wood turning. All it is is a series of articles from a UK magazine and they're not that good. Sure it has plenty of pictures and stories, but beyond that it's not much value. If you want to learn to turn from beginning to advanced, I'd skip this one.

Well put together, informative,
This review is from: Woodturning: Bowls, Platters, Hollow Forms, Vases, Vessels, Bottles, Flasks, Tankards, Plates (Paperback)
Received the book yesterday and can't put it down. I consider myself an intermediate turner and some of the projects are a little above me, some right on. There are some very interesting shapes that I would enjoy trying. I like the book and would recommend it to other woodturners. It is well above the beginner. I am delighted to add this woodturning book to my library.
