Originally published in 2000, long time veneering professional Mike Burton takes you through everything you need to know in this thorough and exhaustive book. From the history of veneering, the production of wood veneer and the tools, equipment and safety issues to consider, all the way through to specific techniques like marquetry, Burton’s book has everything you need to know and more. Projects include a simple box and set of coasters, as well as more complicated furniture items like a blanket chest, kidney-shaped desk and a dining table. Illustrated throughout, you’d be hard pressed to put a foot wrong.
