Jewellery Making/Silversmithing Book Recommendations

[medusa]

Any serious collection of books on jewellery making must contain the Complete Metalsmith, by Tim McCreight. However if it appeals to you, don't buy the professional version, which has a spiral bound hard cover. It is so awkward to close that you might well end up flinging it across the room and doing a lot of damage. Dennis

I have that version and have had no problems with it. I really like the fact I can prop it up or fold it right over without it jumping around like stitched or glued books do. It also looks and feels lovely as well which is no reason for buying a book, but it helps!

I've got the A Young books on my birthday wish list.

Same with me. As for a content, I prefer this one over the hard cover edition.
