Turning Decorative Bowls is an exciting new title containing 16 inspiring woodturning projects created by one of the UK’s leading turners. Compiled from the archives of Woodturning Magazine and first commissioned as challenges from the late Editor, Mark Baker, Richard Findley is tasked with researching and attempting to master new and innovative techniques. The projects increase in complexity from simple bowl turning to incorporating decorative techniques such as airbrushing, resin and brass wire inlays and pewter rims. Richard shares how he tackled each challenge from start to finish, including the struggles as well as the successes. His stories will inspire novice and experienced turners alike.
