Description or summary of the audiobook: With an introduction by master craftsman Ralph Kylloe, this manual on rustic carpentry is a superb resource for woodworkers, furniture makers and carpenters of all skill levels. Here are clear and concise instructions for creating beautiful pieces with unfinished timber, utilising the unique texture and shape of tree branches, trunks and shrubs. In addition, rustic woodworking requires few tools and relatively little skill to make decorative and practical stands, tables, chairs, gates, porches, aviaries, foot bridges, verandas, tool sheds and more. All these projects are included here with detailed advice on collecting and drying sticks; what kind of wood works best for various items; how to varnish both indoor and outdoor pieces; using battens and mortises to secure furniture; and successfully employing a range of other techniques.
