A practical how-to, February 13, 2002
This review is from: Wrought Ironwork: Forms, Production, Assembly (Hardcover)
This book gives the only practical how-to on traditional English gate building. It has very detailed information on the production of hand-wrought scroll work, including how to make the tools. I build my own scroll-bending machines, and this book still taught me a lot.
