5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent tutorial on how to make bent wood furniture., August 24, 1999

By A Customer

Kim Eltrond's video tape is an excellent tutorial for those craftpersons that want to learn how to make bent wood furniture. Kim discusses and illustrates all the necessary tools and techniques from gathering green wood to making two different projects: a plant stand and a settee.

Although he uses and discusses woods native to his area (Canada), especially alder, I was able to substitute local Kentucky bendable green woods, inculding poplar, basswood, and of course, willow.

I found Kim's script well written and organized for its intended purpose of teaching rustic furniture making. He offered several useful techniques that aren't apparent to beginners and that saved many hours of learning from my own mistakes. An instructional booklet is included that contains detailed materials lists for the two projects.
