If you have a set of carving tools that haven't been used in a while, this book is designed to make you want to get them out, sharpen them and include some carving in your next project. Starting with a rundown on tools and equipment, it proceeds to instructions for handling the tools and the how-tos of carving in-the-round, relief, panelling, moulding and edgings, finishing with project patterns, gilding techniques and a discussion of the types of wood most suitable for carving.
