A range of woodworking techniques is explored, including model-making with balsa wood; relief carving a hardwood panel, and using a jigsaw to cut complicated shapes. With the help of The Beginner's Guide to Woodworking you could fashion a colourful music box with a pirouetting dancer, a delightful crayon box in the shape of a cat, or a useful pair of salad servers. You might also have the time to tackle a slightly more complicated project a thumb piano that plays mellow, evocative notes. Detailed step-by-step instructions accompanied by full-colour photographs, and when necessary diagrams and templates, enable the steps to be followed with ease. You will also find helpful advice about choosing and buying pieces of wood and how best to finish and polish the completed items.
