Heirloom Wood

Offert en anglais seulement

Max Bainbridge has written a love letter to wood’s form and function through simple woodcarving projects that teaches how to create hand-carved bowls, cutting boards, spoons, knives and spatulas – perfect for adding a touch of the handmade to your home. Combining traditional techniques with contemporary design, Bainbridge will have you identifying wood types, sourcing timber and setting up a basic toolbox before offering step-by-step carving and cutting techniques for making your own pieces.

Learn to source and choose wood, select and care for your tools, and how to sand, ebonize, scorch and texture wood surfaces before finishing them with wax, oil or other finishes. Imbue each of your handcrafted projects with a tangible history visible through the maker’s mark and timeless keepsakes to be passed down from generation to generation.
