Woodcraft

Offert en anglais seulement

Looking for a simpler, more natural way of working with wood? Create beautiful wooden objects from fresh green wood by becoming skilled in the crafts of whittling, axe-based furniture making, turning and weaving.

With green woodworking there’s no need for costly materials and machinery. All you need to begin crafting is a log, an axe and a hand knife.

Starting with selecting and splitting your very first log, this book will show you all the techniques of green woodworking and guide you step by step through a series of rewarding projects.

Learn to carve your own spoons, bowls, shrink boxes and other objects, construct simple pieces of furniture, such as stools and side tables, turn wood on a pole lathe, and weave with willow rods and birch bark.

A newly resurgent folk craft is made truly accessible to all. No workshop required.
