"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!

"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.

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!
