Quercus  |  Sept/Oct 21
Summary
The latest issue of Quercus is dedicated to toolmaking. Rex Krueger enthuses how he makes simple tools using chisels instead of plane irons to make toolmaking simple and inexpensive. You’ll be inspired by the travishers produced by Claire Minihan and the marking tools by Derek Jones. Doug Stowe makes his own hook knives for carving spoons. Michelle Mateo shows the tools and devices used for turning bowls on a pole lathe, John Lloyd compares Western and Japanese saws, and Jeff Lefkowitz shares his guarantees for the making of lasting chair joints. As usual Quercus is devoted to the working of wood by hand.
