Chip Carving Patterns, by Wayne Barton. 128 Pages. Softbound. Wayne Barton's new book provides, in a single volume, the largest assortment of chip carving patterns yet published. Beginning with a survey of the materials and methods of this increasingly popular craft, the author provides valuable insight for the beginner or established carver by sharing his rich experience. Trained in Switzerland and an established master carver, Barton admits that his designs predominantly reflect the Swiss influence, but he includes designs from other cultures in pursuit of his stated goal of "...playing a role in the continuing development of chip carving designs for future generations". A handy book for the carver and a great gift. UNAVAILABLE (BK-0588)
