"Una cocina sin armario es como un cuerpo sin alma"Esto es lo que dijo un sabio ebanista cuando le pregunté qué significaba para él la ebanistería.He practicado todos los aspectos de la carpintería, como la ebanistería, el torneado de madera y la fabricación de muebles, además de la ebanistería, y debo decir que este arte ofrece la máxima posibilidad de influir en el aspecto general de la cocina o el baño y, finalmente, de la casa.Los armarios, para mí, son una extensión de su personalidad y una gran manera de expresarse.Cuando empecé a hacer trabajos en madera, busqué desesperadamente una guía sobre los procesos específicos y las herramientas exactas necesarias.El contenido que encontré en Internet era una sobrecarga total de información y no se presentaba de forma secuencial. Los libros se centraban en unos pocos procesos o daban por sentado que yo ya tenía la información necesaria. Además, muchos de los libros estaban muy anticuados.Hay dos formas de obtener información: aprender de expertos en la materia con años de experiencia, y la otra es adquirir conocimiento de personas que están sólo unos pasos por delante de ti en su viaje.Yo pertenezco a este último grupo. Llevo cinco años en esta afición y sigo aprendiendo de los expertos.Todavía recuerdo mis dudas iniciales y los primeros consejos que me ayudaron.Este libro es para aquellos que todavía están dando sus primeros pasos (0-3 años) en la artesanía de la madera y quieren hacerse una idea global de los procesos y herramientas necesarios.He incluido fotografías de proyectos realistas para principiantes, y explicaré los procesos y procedimientos operativos estándar asociados a ellos.A continuación, los temas que encontrarás en el interior:· Introducción a la ebanistería· Tipos de armarios, puertas y cajones· Herramientas utilizadas y mejores prácticas· Procesos y técnicas· 10 proyectos para principiantes· Recapitulación y consejos de seguridad· Conclusión y recursos gratuitos en línea En el último capítulo, he proporcionado un enlace a recursos gratuitos en línea para planificar tus próximos proyectos.Éxitos, ¡y empecemos el emocionante viaje!

¿QUIERES APRENDER A TRABAJAR LA MADERA DE ALGUIEN QUE VA UNOS PASOS POR DELANTE DE TI?Si crees de verdad en el concepto de que la mejor persona para enseñarte alguna nueva habilidad es la que acaba de pasar esa etapa de principiante y puede identificarte con tus retos, este libro es para ti.Soy un consultor tecnológico y he estado practicando la carpintería durante los últimos 5 años. En el proceso, he conocido a varios practicantes y principiantes y he visto sus desafíos y las soluciones más adecuadas.Este es un libro no tradicional que te ayuda a alcanzar tu objetivo de terminar tus primeros proyectos. Todos los capítulos contienen una gran variedad fotografías para tu comprensión.Este es un libro 3 en 1 que consta de tres partes y 25 proyectos de iniciación:¿ Parte 1: Trabajo en madera para principiantes¿ Parte 2: Ensamblaje de madera para principiantes¿ Parte 3: Torneado de madera para principiantesTodas estas partes constan de:¿ Introducción, definiciones básicas, una historia que te haga sentirte cómodo con el tema¿ Descripción de las herramientas e instrucciones de uso¿ Las pautas de seguridad y las mejores prácticas son el capítulo más importante en todos estos 3 temas, ¡esta debería ser la prioridad!¿ Proceso, técnicas y consejos para principiantes: Todas las técnicas básicas necesarias para completar los proyectos iniciales junto con consejos prácticos de los profesionales.¿ 25 (10 trabajos de madera, 5 de carpintería, 10 de torneado de madera) proyectos iniciales paso a paso: Puedes elegir cualquiera de ellos para comenzar tu viaje¿Glosario de términos de carpintería para una mejor comprensiónAsí que, en general, sentirás que un amigo que ha aprobado un examen la semana pasada te está ayudando a hacer lo mismo la semana que viene.Consigue hoy mismo tu libro de carpintería 3 en 1 y comienzatu viaje.

"Whittling for me is more than just an art. It is like meditation and rather therapeutical. Every single time you create something, it brings you the delight and also the happiness that meets your mind and soul". This is the reply I got from an old practitioner when I asked him how do you interpret Whittling. Then I realized the core idea behind this craft. It comes with no deadline, no pre-written script, no rules, and just pure expression of your emotions through a knife and a piece of wood.In the present times, when all the self-help gurus are talking about Digital Detox, Whittling comes as a strong contender to pass on to the young and the old alike.My Journey in WhittlingMy wife introduced me to the world of Whittling 5 years ago. As I was already into Leathercraft and Pyrography, I got the basics quickly. But reaching the intermediate level in any art requires practice and patience. It has been an incredible journey for the last few years, working alongside her on various Whittling projects.About the BookThis book is like a friend sharing his experiences and taking you from point A to B in your Whittling journey. The examples and references are real and taken out of the conversations with various experienced Whittlers.The book covers:Introduction: History of Whittling, how it started and became part of popular culture.Wood: All about the type of wood, grains, and tips for starting.Tools: All about pocket and carving knivesTechniques: All type of cutsSafety: Gloves, Thumb pads, duct tape, and other innovative options.Starter projects with photos and step by step instructionsFrequently asked questions: 22 beginner questions as answered by experts: Multiple solutions to a single problemList of online resources for patternsI have included realistic photographs, discussions, tips, FAQs, which I have received along the way of my journey in Whittling over the years.  Still on the fence?Okay, let me explain to you the difference between Wood Carving and Whittling?Whittling is like an unplanned vacation (go with the flow), and Wood Craving is like planning a vacation through a tour operator!And lastly my favorite analogy:When I was struggling to understand the concept of wood grain initially, one old-time whittler told me, "Think of the grain-like petting a cat. When you pet it head to tail, the fur all lies down, and the cat purrs. If you try to go from tail to head, it spikes up, and the cat gets very angry. Keep the cat happy."So what are you waiting for, get the book now and start your Whittling Journey! 

There are very few crafts in the world which gives as much satisfaction as Pyrography- AnonymousWhether you are a Technology professional like me or Financial Consultant or a Teacher, we all need to unwind and splash our creative juices once in a while and appreciate the power of imagination. This book is targeted at people from diverse backgrounds, trying Pyrography as a beginner and looking for to the point, minimalistic, value-packed information to start off with their first project.Why Pyrography?Of all the crafts I have done, Pyrography is the most value for money. It gives me immense satisfaction and serves the purpose for which I practice the art on the weekends.The best part is this art has got something for everyone.If you are a beginner, get a scrap wood and use your existing soldering pen to start the artwork. Later, you can shift to a proper burner. If you like calligraphy, you can burn letters. A friend of mine is a space enthusiast, and he is making space ships!With experience, you master the art of shading, which gives depth to the artwork. Drawing hair, fur, or skin of an animal takes time, but it is worthwhile to put the effort.The best part of this skill is it makes one of the best presents for the loved ones. As the art ages with time, it leaves a memorable piece of history to the coming generation.The best person to guide you is the one few steps ahead of you!This is not a traditional book but an effort from your friend to present the experience and discussions while learning this art in the last few years.
