This should the second book in any turner's collection. Dr. Green does a fantastic job describing the various ways to make stuff on the lathe. The illustrations are top-notch and the directions are astute. This books provides lots of how-to. How to make a goblet with a long thin cylinder connecting the base to the vessel, how-to make your own vacuum chucks, how to place a bowl on a vacuum chuck so it is aligned. The book justly deserves my 5 star review. (BTW- the first book should either be a Richard Raffan or David Ellsworth intro to turning book.)

Excellent survey of some of the standard tricks and techniques for turning the unorthodox. There's enough information here to do most of this yourself; I'll be able to use a lot of these techniques pretty quickly and I am a beginner. If you get very far in turning, I suspect you'll need more than a couple of these...

If you're quick you'll look at the pictures and read a little of the text and have the epiphany... no more reading required! In some cases you might require a few more details, and will find a very careful reading to be crucial as some of the explanations could have been better edited. For example, Page 52 Waste Blocks and Glue Blocks: "A glue block serves a similar function but is typically much larger and meant to be reused..." with no further explanation of how one might achieve this reuseability... perhaps he means "I *intend* to reuse this thing I just glued to my bowl, but must cut it off the work and alter it"... which some might not regard as reuseable... and so what is reuseable?

I really liked the projects and think they'll be very useful, although the pictures and text don't seem to synch... until you realize that the picture was taken either before or after one of the intermediate steps in the text. aha. I see now. after the third read.

In my book, these are mostly minor gripes that belong more to the editor than the author, and which can be overcome by careful reading. Obviously this is not always the case.

I also found two chapters on vacuum chucks overkill, but you may not.

Overall, I think this is a very good book that fills an important niche. I am not aware of a better, more complete book on the subject. I consider it a very worthwhile purchase.

This is a little bit of an odd book.

As the title suggests, it goes into great detail on how to attach the work to the lathe, how to make steady rests etc. At first I was a little nonplussed when reading because the author goes into detail on everything except the actual turning, even the turning that you might have to do to make a jig. However, this focus is actually the best part of the book. The reader probably already knows the basics of turning and would, in any event, be better off with a more general book on the actual woodturning techniques for this part.

The author has spelled out a number of creative and useful ways to inexpensively increase the capabilities of the wood lathe and to get around some of the problems turners will probably encounter. Further, he often spells out several different ways or jigs to do similar things so the reader has options. I particularly like the examples of the bowl and spindle steadies. I followed his plans for a bowl steady and saved more than the price of the book by making one. (It works great by the way.) The biggest problem I had was deciding which of three plans would work the best for what I wanted to do.

This would not be a good first choice if you can only buy one book on turning. But while there are multiple good books on other aspects of turning, this book has fairly minimal overlap with others. I therefore recommend it as part of every woodturner's library.

Really good book. I haven't purchased a lathe yet and wanted to know more about the accessories that either came with a lathe or you'd need to really do the work. Turns out, I learned a lot about chucks and now realize that when you get home with your new lathe, you might be surprised about what's not included in the box. While the book does a good job of explain commercial accessories, it also shows you how to make a number of jigs and fixtures. While many experienced turners might find the contents of the book to be common knowledge, for me, it cleared up a lot of my confusion. It's a keeper.

For $16 I got a bargain. I have been turning for 12 months and have learned a ton from this book. It covers chucking with hardware as well as making and using homemade jigs/chucks. Lots of precise explanation of the pictures. It explains the various chucks and the various uses of each. Gives instructions on remounting; chucking large and small projects; making and using steady rests. For projects it covers assembling stacked hollowed forms; adding rims or feet to hollow forms. Very good value.

Doc Green provides a lot of valuable information on holding wood on your lathe. Besides what you would expect on chucks, faceplates and centers, he goes on to shopmade chucks, jam chucks, collets and mandrels. There are lots of innovative shopmade jigs and chucks detailed. He explains how to make chucks to reverse turn a bowl for finishing: with cole jaws, doughnut chucks and Longworth chucks. He includes an excellent chapter on making vacuum chucks with very detailed instructions on making the trickiest part, the rotary adapter.

There is stuff in here I think would take me months to think up.
A real time saver for anyone who spends a fair amount of time on the lathe, and often gets caught on, "How to finish off that piece, with a chunk of it still in the chuck".

Some of it is intuitive, some if it is just downright ingenious.
