Reviews
A WOODCARVER'S GUIDE TO SHARPENING TOOLS AND SETTING UP SHOP, from the editors of Woodcarving Illustrated magazine, is a collection of articles to help woodcarvers set up their workshop, keep their tools sharp and organized, and make efficient use of their space. It offers tips and techniques from carvers Roger Schroeder, Lora Irish, Jack Kochan and others. There's a projects section for making a tool holder, dust collectors, and carving benches and stands. For beginners, there's a chapter setting up a workshop on a budget. Carving tools, from knifes to mallets, and finishing techniques are also covered. - Woodshop News Usually when the editors of a highly respected magazine get together to publish a full book on a subject you can be sure that every detail will be covered. This certainly holds true in this book from Woodcarving Illustrated. Nothing has been left out. The authors even cover painting and what types to use and when your carving project is complete there is a section on how to photograph it. Carving with dull tools can be both dangerous and tedious. Correct methods of sharpening those odd-shaped carving tools are covered at length. The book also covers dust management, tool selection, carving jigs and a myriad of other carving related topics that will prove to be an asset to all carvers. Keep this one close to your carving bench it is the perfect carver's reference book. - Graham McCulloch, Shortcuts This fantastic book covers useful techniques on setting up a workshop with the woodcarver in mind, focusing on essentials such as safety, making your own worKbench and vices, dust extraction, using adhesives, and the low-down on abrasives...This is a great book to introduce the beginner to everything they need to know about carving. - Woodcarving Magazine, United Kingdom, None of liS in the woodworking centrewould claim to be carvers and my ownexperience is limited to two and ahalf rocking horscs mainly made llsing anarobtec and powcr file. The half represents ahalf finished project which must be completedfor Christmas.However, as we stock a range of carvingtools and timbers we are frequently asked,especially by beginners what tools theyshould buy and how tosharpen them. With this inmind I have been searchingfor some time for a book =~thatcovers this and I believethat this recent additionto GMC's library meetsthis criteria.The book is an Americanpublication but that representsno problem as toolsand techniques are common both sides ofthe pone!. However, the same cannot besaid for machining publications! This bookaddresses what every woodcarver needs, sharptools, be it European-style carving knives orcarving tools, organising your carving areaand other equipment necessary to practicethis hobby.It is 110t intended to be a proper manual,although it does cover the manufacture of manysimple holding devices, but is a very Illuch'how 10 keep tools razor sharp etc' publication.Other items covered are glues, clampsfinishing of projects, workshop organizationand much more.Colour photographs are excellent and nowhaving read the book I certainly am benerinformed on tools, equipment required and howto use them.I know from personal experience how mallYWoodturners become disillusioned becauseno one has taught them how to sharpen toolscorrectly ancl I suspect the same can be saidof woodcarvers.A book I would recommend to anyonesetting out all this fascinating hobby and at thistime of the year a great Christmas present.Mike Sandells
