This method of turning, which allows an unlimited number of combinations of shapes, materials and colours, opens up a wide range of creative possibilities.
This comprehensive manual, illustrated with numerous photos and explanatory diagrams, provides the keys to understanding and practising segmented turning. The author shares his expertise in both solid and openwork segment construction. A dozen or so projects, meticulously detailed step by step, will enable readers to familiarise themselves with the various turning techniques, from the simplest to the most elaborate. This book will be of interest to apprentice turners wanting to broaden their practice, as well as to advanced turners looking for an overview of advanced techniques.
