Purchase options and add-ons

With clear instructions and vivid color photographs, Al Streetman takes woodcarvers through all the steps necessary to release a wood spirit from a cypress knee. Using the shapes suggested by the forms of the knees themselves, Al carves both a complete Santa figure and a Santa ornament as the central projects of the book. Also included are a listing of tools used in the projects, directions for painting and antiquing the completed carvings, and a color gallery featuring additional cypress knee Santa figures to inspire the carver. This book will present interesting challenges to the novice and be a joy for the more advanced woodcarver.

1.0 out of 5 stars This book should be called Carving Cypress Knee Santas.
Reviewed in the United States on February 15, 2005
Verified Purchase
The title of this book is only half right. It is about carving cypress knees, but there isn't a single wood spirit in it. All the carvings in the book are of Santas. I was very disappointed in this book as I am not interested in carving Santas and wanted a book on wood spirits. Even the Santas in the book are disappointing. Also beware, this book is mislabeled as being a hardcover, it is not!
