This book is a practical and inspiring guide to working with wet wood as a living material. Instead of controlling or hiding the wood's movements and cracks, the book shows how these natural changes can be incorporated as part of the object's aesthetic expression.
The book combines craftsmanship with reflections on form, function, and aesthetics. It covers the entire process – from selecting and preparing the wood to shaping, turning techniques, creative repairs, and surface treatments.
The book is aimed at both beginners eager to explore the material and experienced woodturners seeking new perspectives and techniques, where the living wood becomes an active co-creator.
