Creating Beautiful Boxes With Inlay Techniques
Stowe is a woodworker with 20 years' experience and an eye for boxes and box-making. In a well-presented, concise format, he outlines 15 projects, illustrated in full color. The designs are open-ended, allowing the available wood to dictate a given project. Materials and tools lists are included, and line drawings highlight what details the photographs cannot. Most of these projects are geared toward the experienced woodworker, but less-skilled hobbyists and other general "enjoyers of wood" will also find pleasure in these pages. Gentle in tone but strong in presentation, this book is solidly grounded in practice. In the end, the author offers solid advice on woodworking and, by extension, life.
