Decorative wood & metalwork

When most people first take up woodturning as a hobby, they are proud to produce bowls, plates and spindle-work. However, there will often come a time when this can become repetitive as, although some work stands out because of shape, grain pattern or because of the turner's skill, there are many pieces that simply look uniform. There is one way to easily lift these works out of the ordinary, and that is by adding decoration. Decorative Woodturning will start you on this creative journey, describing how to undertake the most common types of decoration, helping build confidence and inspiring you to experiment with different techniques.

AUTHOR: Steve Crouchman, the son of a cabinet maker, has been woodworking for more than forty years. An engineer by profession, he enjoys experimenting with different decoration techniques, modifying them to get the best finish for each piece. When he's not in his workshop, he enjoys sharing his expertise with fellow enthusiasts and being part of a vibrant woodturning community.
