The wife got me a B&N gift card for fathers day.
I know book choice is a personal one ... but it'd be neat to hear what you all would do. I've got some good wood working/turning books (and the one DVD we must all own), so I'm looking to find something new.
Do you have a favorite? Or, if not, which of these might tempt you?
I'm thinking the woodturning wizardry (just for the pretty pictures :-)
- a Dick Sing book
(pens, miniprojects, etc)
- Woodturning Wizardry
(or ... will this make me want to buy more tools for chinese ball making?)
- a Bonnie Klein book
("Classic Wood Turning Projects")
- a design book
(focus on shapes, form, etc.)
- a technique book
(wood holding, turning in miniature, jewelry, multi-center turning, etc.)
