Furniture & Cabinetmaking Magazine, editor Colin Eden-Eadon
says:
'I know many readers have
completed their own 'apprenticeship' through John's clear, succinct writing
and photography which conveys a very evident passion for his subject. I am
sure that many more will find this book a real asset in the workshop as a
reference and indeed as another tool in their armoury. There is plenty of
variety in the projects, something to suit everyone's ability and to stretch
your making skills a little further, finding something new along the way. So
get out your plane and set out on a new voyage of discovery.'
About John Bullar the Author of
Cabinetmaking - A Foundation Course:
Author John Bullar designs and makes bespoke furniture to
commission using contemporary versions of techniques his Grandfather used as
a cabinetmaker in the nineteen twenties. Making bespoke furniture means
every piece is different and John describes his work in project and
technical articles, published in UK and US magazines and translated into
other languages. John’s engineering degree is useful when testing and
demonstrating equipment. Belonging to a group of furniture designer-makers
he visits workshops across the country comparing techniques with some of the
finest. Listening and talking to clients about new ideas, working with fine
native hardwoods and using good tools give John Bullar real pleasure.
