Turning Hollow Forms: Techniques and Projects
Autor Mark Sangeren Limba Engleză Paperback – 3 mar 2014
For thousands of years we have created hollow forms to store everyday objects and things of value, but functional objects can also be beautiful in their own right. This comprehensive book will guide the beginner through everything they need to know to get started with turning their own hollow forms. You will learn how to work with different types of wood, which tools to use, and how to apply basic techniques with confidence. Learn the basic principles of form, proportion, and design and how to apply this knowledge to your own work.
Seven striking projects are set out in a clear, step-by-step format and progress in difficulty. Projects include an open-necked vase, two-part vase with inset neck, squat hollow form with inset base, end-grain form produced from seasoned wood, cross-grain lidded form with finial top, and green hollow form.
