David Ellsworth: Works in Wood December 19 - January 14, 2009
"Ellsworth on Woodturning: How a Master Creates Bowls, Pots, and Vessels" published by Fox Chapel, 2008, is available for purchase in the Museum Shop!
Renowned for creating thin-walled bowls and vases, Ellsworth, a first-time author but a recognized artisan and woodworker, authoritatively here reveals the secrets behind his signature style and offers sound advice. The section on stretching and posture, where he addresses muscle strain or back injury during wood turning, is worthy of major praise. Much of what is covered in this book is very advanced stuff but with results of ethereal beauty. Highly recommended for advanced woodworking collections.
