Fine Woodworking on Spindle Turning

By Fine Woodworking Magazine

Back by popular demand, these classic woodworking titles from Fine Woodworking magazine are filled with first-rate information that is as timeless now as it was when first published.

When it comes to efficiency, nothing beats the lathe. You can use it to size, shape, smooth, and finish a piece of wood all in one operation. And the variety of useful things you can make on a lathe is vast--everything from porch pillars to baseball bats. In this collection of 39 articles from Fine Woodworking magazine, some of the past decade's most accomplished and inventive woodturners share their secrets. They show you how to use the turner's gouge and master one of the most difficult of tools, the skew chisel. They also offer a wealth of clever shop tips, plans for making tools and gauges, and even advice about achieving the look of turned wood without a lathe.

Since it began publication in 1975, Fine Woodworking has written about practically every aspect of the craft. The "Fine Woodworking on..." series organizes many of the articles from the magazine's first ten years into individual volumes by subject. Each book in this series offers an in-depth look at a particular aspect of woodworking, from the perspective of skilled professional and dedicated amateur woodworkers.
