    Abstract

    Do you want to start creating beautiful objects with wood? Is the idea of working with wood something that has always appealed to you? Do you have everything you need to get started? There is something about the smell of wood that makes us want to be around it and create things from it. For thousands of years our relationship has been one that has existed on many different levels, using it for building shelters, constructing ships that explored the world, used it for heat, furniture and a thousand other things besides.

  • Woodturning for beginners handbook : the step-by-step guide with tools, techniques, tips and starter projects

    Creator

    Fleming, Stephen

    Abstract

    Of all the woodworking crafts I have practiced, Turning demands most patience and focus. As you start, you have to find your comfort zone with a lathe, chisels, and other tools. After some practice, your mind and body would get attenuated to the ecosystem of Turning. There are two ways of learning; one is learning from SMEs (Subject Matter Experts) with years of experience, and the other is to learn from people who are just a few steps ahead of you in their journey. I fall into the latter group.

  • Thinking inside the box : adventures with crosswords and the puzzling people who can't live without them

    Creator

    Raphel, Adrienne

    Abstract

    A delightful, erudite, and immersive exploration of the crossword puzzle and its fascinating history by a brilliant young writer The crossword is a feature of the modern world, inspiring daily devotion and obsession from not just everyday citizens looking to pass the time but icons of American life, such as Bill Clinton, Yo-Yo Ma, and Martha Stewart. It was invented in 1913, almost by accident, when a newspaper editor at the New York World was casting around for something to fill some empty column space for that year's Christmas edition.

  • The leatherworking starter handbook : beginner friendly guide to leather crafting process, tips and techniquest

    Creator

    Fleming, Stephen

    Abstract

    I am a technology consultant with 10+ years of project management experience. Last 5 years I have been experimenting with leather crafting in the weekends. While starting learther crafting way back in 2014, I was desperately looking for the go-to guide for complete first-hand information about the processes and the tools involved. Online content was information overload and was not presented in sequence. The books I referred were either focused on a few processes or asumed that I had the necessary information. Also, I found that most of the books were a little aged.

    Soapy Kelly

    Abstract

    You Are About To Discover Exactly How To Make Your Very Own Organic Soap Using Readily Available Ingredients, Just Like The Pros! Even though we don’t like admitting it, most of us know that commercial soap that comes in different names like “beauty bar” and “deodorizing bar” isn’t really soap, but a detergent made with synthetic ingredients, agents and chemicals you’d not fancy pronouncing. Such soap is often harsh to our precious skin, which is notorious for absorbing anything that is placed on it.
