Seen the book advertised,so know the one you mean - haven't got it yet,as I wondered if it was good;will take this as a positive vote,and put it on the shopping list.

I saw the book at craft supplies and was very impressed but cash was in short supply at the time :roll: I will be adding it to my birthday / chrimbo list :wink:

Be nice if someone knew the name of it, or had a link.
As a newbie I find designing a form to suit what I want & can achieve with the size of piece can be very challenging.
I have a few books & also the internet (of course), but a book of forms would be great.
I got a book entitled "fabulous turned wood projects" & in my opinion it's total gash - maybe a bit too advanced & fancy for me at this stage.

While you are waiting for the book to arrive look here for ideas.

Also google 'Woodturning Galleries ' and see what turns up

Hope this helps
