Wood Identification & Use. Author: Terry Porter
More than 200 species of wood are included in this lavishly illustrated book. Each species is described in detail with a colour photograph and information on its working properties, seasoning requirements, uses and safety considerations.
There are sections on decorative figuring, wood defects and potential health hazards. There are also inspirational examples of finished work, a glossary of technical terms and drawings of living trees which serve to enhance appreciation of the raw material of woodwork.
Aimed at small-scale users, whether professional or amateur, the book includes woods used in cabinetmaking, joinery, carpentry, turning, carving and a host of more specialist applications.
