Episode 44 – Wooden Bowls From the Scroll Saw – Book Review
I had the opportunity to review one of the best How-To woodworking books I’ve ever read. Carole Rothman makes a seemingly impossible task utterly simplistic through her many step-by-step bowl, jar and vase projects in Wooden Bowls from the Scroll Saw.
I was impressed with how detailed each project in the book was so intricately laid out and explained, but what really made me fall in love with Carole’s how-to writing style, was that she must have her beginner readers’ best interests in mind. In the first chapter she discusses the pro’s and con’s of several species of wood and encourages the woodworker to try other types also.
Carole discusses all of the possible tools needed and how to use them. She even includes templates for how to build your own bowl glue-up clamps.
