Description:

Learn to make a post-and-rung stool with a woven seat, a pair of lightweight trestles, a bentwood firewood carrier, handsome hewn bowls, and even a practical wooden rake, using the timeless techniques of working green wood with hand tools. Instead of the nerve-jangling noise and nose-tickling dust of power tools, you'll use maul and froe, broad axe and adze, drawknife and carving knife to create handsome and serviceable pieces to use and display. A concluding section profiles a selection of contemporary workers of green wood.
