This handbook takes the reader through the process of finding, processing, seasoning and drying their own unique timber and is aimed at independent woodworkers across a whole range of disciplines. To this day, most literature on seasoning and drying timber takes into account that the readers are dealing with timber by the kiln-load, but this title is aimed at one-man-bands, who work with small garden timber and writes in an entertaining and accessible. The book covers: Anatomical structures of wood, identifying timber, sourcing timber, seasoning timber and drying timber. AUTHOR: Alan Holtham is a woodworker and a journalist, who has written extensively on this vast subject for a range of magazines including the highly acclaimed Woodturning (GMC) magazine as well as New Woodworking (GMC), The Router (GMC) and Furniture and Cabinetmaking (GMC).
