Customer Reviews

great book for people wanting to know more about kaleidoscop

I have been making kaleidoscopes for years and wish this book had been available when I got started. It has a number of interesting kaleidoscope plans which makes it easy to find one that matches your crafting talents. It does include some of the techinical information on cutting and measuring mirrors. A very good discussion on objects used in kaleidoscopes.
