British Woodworking


The ‘Fundamentals’ series for British Woodworking has allowed me to explore basic skills, techniques and tools in great detail; often questioning, and sometimes improving on, traditional methods. This series focuses on the hand skills and methods of working that provide the critical foundation for all areas of woodwork.
