Book description
This book has very good instructions on how to get good results in turning furniture parts. The chapter on table legs is a high point. I would give it a 10 just on that. I wish the author had skipped some of the basics since most buyers already know it. Nevertheless there is a lot of good material. If I come out of a book with something added to my work I consider it money well spent. This one certainly fits the bill.

Covering a technique popularized by master woodturner Ray Allen, this manual moves beyond basic woodturning with the segmented woodturning technique. This creative approach is demonstrated in one complete step-by-step project that effectively guides woodturners through the complicated process of creating geometric, repeating patterns with a Southwestern feel. Detailed, illustrated instructions make this seemingly elaborate technique approachable. Additional information on common problems helps avoid mistakes along the way. A full-color photograph gallery provides inspiration for future projects.
