In this<em> inspiring</em> and <em>thought-provoking </em>guide, Michael O' Donnell, one of the <strong>foremost exponents</strong> of the technique, <strong>explains how to</strong> <strong>harvest</strong> and <strong>store timber</strong>, and<strong> how to</strong> make the <strong>best use of the grain pattern</strong> and other <strong>properties</strong>.</p> <p><strong>Turning green wood</strong> can be made so <em>delicate</em> that it is <strong>actually translucent</strong>, and the thickness of the wood <em>can be gauged</em> by shining a <em>light throug</em>h it as you work. Using <strong>clear text</strong> and <strong>spectacular photographs</strong> to <strong>show exactly</strong> <strong>how</strong> this is <strong>done</strong>, this book demystifies one of the most <em>admired techniques used by woodturners today</em>.
