Quercus Magazine - March/April 2023

Product Description

Robin Wood is one of the most significant and intriguing of 21st Century woodworkers, as such a woodsman and craftsperson, as well as campaigner, pioneer, tutor and now toolmaker. He, and a handful of others, have helped to inspire and aid a resurgency of traditional crafts, and for his endeavours was awarded an MBE for services to Heritage Crafts and Skills. No wonder Quercus Magazne have interviewed Robin and those who know him well for a exclusive interview, alongside so much else in this issue, including a feature from the powerful new book Crafts Britain. Other features include the building of a bench and a small dovetailed box for tools made by Lie-Nielsen. Quercus Magazine also ask why Knew Concepts saws have been so successful and much more.
