Being totally new to kiln forming of glass into anything I came across this book and a couple others. As I'm planning on taking a bracelet class when they are offered in the fall. I thought I would get a head start. As everything seems to have so many tools and equipment today.

The book is laid out good, nice bright clear pictures of tools and equipment which are numbered for quick connect to the lists. She does cover the basics and some of the important items say about kilns which Is nice if you don't own one and can use the info when you buy one. The pictures are of a good size that you can see what procedure that she is doing. The pictures are next to the description but aren't numbered. Hence my only complaint!
All of the pictures are tight shots of what you need to be doing. which is good as it leaves nothing to guess at. The gallery pages are placed thru the book after each section. All of the pictures are shot of the item on a white back ground. Which does each piece justice. And not the arts'y shot some use. I found this book to be way above the others that I got at the same time. The techniques in this book are what you will need and the others can stay on the shelf, other than for ideas in a couple of years after going thru this one.

It is a great book I own it have read it three times in the two days that I have had it.

I am new to kiln bracelet forming although not new to kiln fired glass, and was blown away with the possibilities demonstrated in this book. You will need a digital caliper to use her measurement charts. Beautiful book, colorful photos and very inspiring.
