So much information for beginners it's unreal. I just started turning last year as a hobby and I can't stay away from it. Well organized, detailed pictures, a must have for any turner, beginner or expert. It is something you can keep learning and use as a guide if you have any questions.

Mr. Raffan's books are some of the best books I have ever read
on the use of wood lathes and turning tools.
His photos and drawings are excellent and clearly illustrate the
ideas presented in the text.
He seems to always anticipate the questions that a novice would
ask and answers them as though you were present at the writing.
I give these books 5 stars only because I couldn't give them 10
