Requiring no investment of expensive machinery, veneering offers woodworkers tremendous opportunities for creativity. In this fully illustrated guide, you can use woods that may be rare, expensive, or structurally weak in their solid form. Learn the terminology of veneering, and then find out what materials, tools, and equipment you need to get started. Use cross-banding, book-matching and quartering, inlaying, parquetry and oyster work, and marquetry to stunning effect. Finishing and polishing will ensure the lasting beauty of your veneers, and a chapter on restoration and working with sawn veneers will enable you to repair damaged pieces. Like having a master craftsman at your disposal, this unique course will help you take your woodworking skills to new heights. The author lives in Ogden, UT. 160 pages, 8 1/2 x 10.

"...an experienced architectural carver...shows his craft in a step-by-step manner, explaining tool use, wood choices, and different stylesof carving....stands out because of its great section on tool use....offersa wealth of both traditional and innovative information; for example, heemploys inexpensive pneumatic chisels...a great technique that this reviewerhas never seen anywhere else. The techniques revealed here could be used bymost woodcarvers, not just those interested in architectural carving....amongthe best on the subject and is essential for all woodcraft collections..."--Library Journal.

The human face poses a challenge to engineers, computer scientists, and psychologists alike. This book integrates different contributions by combining detailed review articles with general overviews of the relationship between different kinds of research on faces and contemporary problems in vision and cognition. Theoretical developments in this area are increasingly dependent on computer technology, both because image-processing techniques allow us to display and manipulate faces for experiments in ways that were not feasible with old photographic technology and because theoretical ideas can be expressed and tested more rigorously using computer simulation. The psychological contributions in this volume illustrate current theoretical developments that are heavily dependent on image processing and computer simulation. As technology improves, so it becomes increasingly feasible to automate many aspects of face processing normally taken for granted to develop new technological aids. Therefore, this volume also includes examples of computing developments for forensic purposes, for the simulation of plastic surgery, and for automatic animation for applications in telecommunications and creative arts.

“[This book] stands out.... Among the best on the subject and essential for all woodcraft collections.”—Library Journal Now at a new low price: a guide to making architectural projects that are within reach of any budget and level of experience written by a master carver, expert at using both hand and power tools. Begin with simple, eye-pleasing items, such as a towel bar set or carved spiral shelf supports. Or try more elaborate projects, including doors and door casings with carved panels, and column capitals used as room separators and porch features. The pages burst with practical tips on the best hand and power carving techniques; how to work from patterns, photos, and models; and little-known shortcuts to save time and money.
