Perfect Wood Finishing Made Easy
A shop owner as well as a teacher of wood-finishing craft, Noble has been a professional woodworker for 18 years, and her experience shows in the wealth of practical advice and the first-rate full-color photography found in this book. This is her first publishing experience, but her attention to detail is obvious. She begins with a short discussion of preparation, which is more than half the battle in virtually all woodworking. (For example, in the first project, she sands for 25 minutes before applying finish for five.) Ten projects are presented, with approximate prep times, and each demonstrates a sensitive selection of wood, use, and finish. A refreshing presentation; recommended for most public libraries.?Alexander Hartmann, INFOPHILE, Williamsport, PACopyright 1998 Reed Business Information, Inc.
