Woodland Craft by Ben Law

Woodland Craft. Author, Ben Law

Celebrate the splendor of wood with these wood-crafting projects. From simple woven panels to making a functional yurt, Woodland Craft features an array of easy-to-follow projects that include crafts for the farm, garden, wood fuel, building and domestic use. In fact, there is something here to satisfy all your project desires! Green wood - wood that has been recently cut and is therefore still moisture-rich - is the predominant material used in the projects featured in this essential guide for craftsman of all levels.

With Woodland Craft you will learn all you need to know about tools and devices, both old and new. You'll browse through the handy directory of tree species and identify the best uses for each. You will appreciate and admire the massive display of illustrations and photographs throughout - nearly 700 combined! And you'll gain the insight you need to make practically anything out of this clean, crisp, beautiful element.
