Wood Bending Made Simple
<p>Wood bending is intriguing to the vast majority of woodworkers, but until now most have not had access to the information they need to add it to their repertoire. <em><strong>Wood Bending Made Simple</strong></em>, a highly visual book and DVD, changes that. It features step-by-step instruction on some of the most common techniques.</p> <p>Expert Lon Schleining explains and demonstrates both steam bending (where steam relaxes wood fibers so they can be shaped when clamped to a bending form) and bent lamination (where thin strips of wood are glued together, then clamped to a bending form). Schleining shows just how easy it can be to master these techniques, even using relatively low-tech equipment.</p>
