Creative Metal Forming [Hardcover] Betty Helen Longhi; Cynthia Eid; Tim McCeight and Jeff McCreight
$37.95
Two accomplished metalsmiths, both with extensive teaching careers, have joined forces to provide a comprehensive survey of the ways to form sheet metal. The 256-page text covers a huge swath, from a basic dapped disk through synclasting, anticlasting and spiculums to a raised vessel. Along the way, special attention is given to anticlastic forming and the vocabulary first introduced by their mentor, Heikki Seppä. Creative Metal Forming utilizes 35 detailed exercises to explain the basics as well as advanced nuances in each category. Metalsmiths Michael Good and Nancy Linkin have each contributed demonstrations of their forming techniques.
