The Workshop

By John Walters on Tuesday, March 23, 2004.

A great workshop says as much about self-expression as it does efficiency and convenience. What is made in a shop - and why - influences the way a shop is configured and what you will find in it. The new book, The Workshop: Celebrating the Place Where Craftsmanship Begins, gives an inside look at over 35 outstanding shops, how they evolved and how they suit the individual needs of the woodworkers who own them. Author Scott Gibson traveled around New England and met furniture makers, boatbuilders, turners, carvers and luthiers, many of whom teach as well as crafting beautiful things in wood. The text and photographs give you an inside peek into the lives and work spaces of some of America's most well known woodworkers.
