<DIV><P style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt">An follow-up to the author's introductory manual, featuring clear language and appealing full-color illustrations, this manual shifts the focus to a survey of interesting special techniques that are seldom seen together in one volume—including chucking, turning spindles, drilling, forming round objects, and multiaxis turning. Projects in this guidebook include chucking a spoon, creating a ring, and turning a sculpture of a tree from a block of wood. Many of these tricks are shown to come from the long history of woodturning, and a number of old engravings and other materials are presented to give historical depth to the discussion.</P></DIV>
