Turning Boxes with Threaded Lids by Schiffer Publishing

Fulfilled by our friends at Schiffer Publishing

Construction and turning techniques for making six threaded-lid boxes. Fully illustrated, this guide takes the turner step-by-step through the process of creating somewhat complicated, cleverly designed wooden containers. Some are made with wood left-over from other uses, while others are turned in lovely exotic woods specially chosen for these projects. Four methods of hand thread-chasing are described so that readers are ready for any circumstance. The use of a rose engine lathe is demonstrated to place ornamental designs on many of the boxes. A photo gallery displays variations to entice readers to try their own hands at creating new artistic endeavors.[AuthorName]Bill Bowers[/AuthorName][AuthorBio]An experienced demonstrator, teacher, and author, Bill Bowers lives in Alaska.[/AuthorBio][NumIllustration]290 color photos[/NumIllustration][CoAuthor][/CoAuthor][SubTitle][/SubTitle][ColorPattern]290 color photos[/ColorPattern]
