Customer Reviews
Superb book!
I do not profess to be an expert in working with metals (my medium is glass), but as a non-recommended purchase and as a beginner, I'm absolutely delighted. Mr Holschuh's book is packed with hugely inspiring designs, which you are shown how to make yourself. All the set-up/technical details are clearly explained too, so for me, it's comprehensive, easy to read, lots of good photography and therefore a very good buy. I highly recommend it.
