Woodworking Crafts Magazine August 15 Back Issue

In issue 3 of Woodworking Crafts, Anthony Bailey and Mark Baker make some elegant tealight holders; Bob Adsett takes us through the essentials of bandsaw construction and design; Louise Biggs makes a set of wooden pelmets; Simon Rodway talks modular seating and Geoffrey Laycock sets his sights on a sophisticated piece of measuring kit.

In ‘hand woodworking’, Michael T Collins further discusses basic jointing techniques; Lee Stoffer shows us how green woodworking isn’t all about axes and mallets; Will Neptune discusses the benefits of using compound-angle joinery in your chairmaking; Peter Sefton shows us how there is more than one way to shoot a mitre joint; Walter Hall looks at some of the best tools of yesteryear and Peter Wood takes us through a gamut of green woodworking tools. We also have Mark Baker turning a wall clock and we go into the restorer’s workshop with Amber Bailey.

We have lots for you to enjoy in our ‘community’ pages: Gary Marshall takes a look at a lime tree dating back to ancient times and Walter Hall reports from the opening of Phoenix House Recovery Centre’s woodworking workshop. We also have our Q&A and our hints, tips and jigs pages as well as a sneak peek at our next issue, before finishing with some design inspiration in the form of shelving.

All this and more in issue 3 of Woodworking Crafts!
