cheftjcook Posted June 27, 2007 Share Posted June 27, 2007 Decorative & Sculptural Ironwork Tools Techniques & Inspiration Author: Dona Z. Meilach # Pages: 313 ISBN#:0-7643-0790-8 Publisher: Schiffer This book is a fantastic mix of “get to work” no nonsense facts on so many types of metals/ techniques and great artwork. This very usable and practical info on a myriad of subjects is presented in such a simple and easy to grasp way, by an excellent author that it draws you in. The “drool factor” is pretty high on this one, as it is profusely Illustrated, filled with color, black & white photos, drawings, charts and so many examples of beautiful work, some true metal genius! Though admittedly some of the techniques and work are well beyond my meager skill level. It is presented, illustrated and explained in such a way that I never felt they were completely beyond my grasp or future development. It truly is an Inspirational Book for all metal enthusiasts, Most of all Blacksmiths!!! Tim Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
