Reviews

I loved this book and the thing of it is, is that it stirs up those imaginative juices to come up with other toy ideas. I think you will like the book as well. Hone up those gouges and put a new edge on your parting tools turners, because here are 15 fun toys to make for the little ones in your life. From yoyo's to a walking penguin author Chris Reid shows you exactly how it's done. From a simple ring toss to a skipping rope to pull toys to a diavolo. Don't know what a diavolo is? Page 128 not only tells you but in a few more pages the author shows you exactly how to turn the toy. This is a great book for the beginning turner and a real fun book for the more experienced. Sometimes even the master turner needs a break and Reid's book provides that respite. I'll be seeing those wood chips flying as I put together a couple of diavolos for the kids in my life.
