Weekend Woodturning Projects: 25 Simple Projects for the Home

this book is clear, has great illustrations and is very instructive. While most of the projects are not to complex, they do offer great practice opportunities and lead to more and more complex ideas being used as your proficiency increases.

Very detailed

This is one of two books edited by Mark Baker, who was editor of the UK magazine Woodturning until his recent death. He has assembled 25 different projects... some quick and easy, and others a bit more challenging. For each project there are dimensioned cross section diagrams, tool and materials lists, and step-by-step procedures for mounting and turning. I bought this book, along with "30-Minute Woodturning" also by Mark Baker, to get some project ideas for the Youth Woodworking program that I teach. These books have many projects that are appropriate for the beginner turners in the program. (Other projects in these books are perfect for my own uses!) I would recommend either of these books for turners of all experience levels... there should be something of interest to any turner.

My son really likes this book. There are so many quick ideas he has plans to try.

The 25 quick projects range from simple to moderately difficult. With good instructions and clear illustrations this is a good resource for beginning turners - and for more experienced turners who are trying to brush up on their skills. (A word of caution, much of the text is in relatively small type (looks like 6pt). Not a problem for most people but something to be aware of.)

So far this book has been great! I have 0 experience for this book. I can’t wait to turn and learn!

Very good Illustrations and very good ideas

good book with some great ideas for simple projects or just needing to get my muscle / tool control back. Mark is a good author and highly recommend.

Projets simples à réaliser. ça donne des idées. On peut toutefois regretter certains manques de conseils. Comme tous les livres anglo-saxons il est très pragmatique.

Some good ideas of projects, nothing to difficult.

Excellent book. Very happy with it.

Everyone in the house has to get a new book at Christmas. This one was a gift to me. Enjoying reading it and planning some projects. Straighforward guide that cultures a progression of skills from easy to intricate.

Very simple projects for the newbies some excellent ideas to make. Quick delivery well packed, not tried anything in book yet but I'm sure he will once he gets it for his birthday at end of month 😄 Thank you so much A1 seller
