Default Excellent new carving book...

Our friends at Fox Chapel published "Twenty Decorative Carving Projects in Period Styles", by Steve Bisco, late last year. For those who enjoy classical carving of decorative and architectural items, this is really a useful book. Each of the 20 examples is carefully explained with patterns, measurements, drawings, and photos. Add this book to Fred Wilbur's books and you have great resources for some serious classical carving techniques and projects. Mike
