Readable, useful, well-illustraded
Tom Lipton is that rare craftsman who is clearly expert in his skills, is willing to share his wealth of knowledge and knows how to connect with aspiring readers. His words strike an easy balance of clarity and contemporary casual style--with a dash of humor sprinkled in. He knows how much to say, delivering the goods at the right level of detail. This book is a gift to those who admire his perch as master of the metalworking trade. The book confirms what is also evident in the YouTube videos, that Mr. Lipton is a star metalworker, skilled teacher and effective communicator whose words and manner demonstrate respect and kinship for those of us who aspire to his accomplishments.
