Product Description

Review
``An immensely practical book.'' (Practical Boat Owner )

``Chock full of everything from basic information to a variety of ideas designed to improve, upgrade, and protect a boat.'' (Small Boat Journal )

``Literally every question is answered in this book.'' (Yachting )

Product Description

Now completely revised and updated, and expanded by more than fifty percent, The Complete Canvasworker's Guide, Second Edition, brings you Jim Grant's thorough step-by-step approach to constructing a nearly endless variety of attractive and functional gear for your boat. Grant, with his wife, Connie, has taught sailmaking and canvaswork for more than 20 years, and he brings an often intimidating craft within the grasp and budget of anyone from an all-thumbs beginner to a would-be professional.

Forget that canvas always used to be made of cotton. Today it is far more commonly woven of synthetic fibers: acrylic, polyester, or nylon. Here is all the information you'll need to make use of them all. Grant's no-frills approach, refined over years of answering the questions of puzzled students, is for any boatowner who wants to take needle to fabric. And as tens of thousands of proud boatowners will happily testify, it really works.

4.0 out of 5 stars Practical, 6 Dec 2008
If you have your own industrial sewing machine this is very useful as you can make a lot of canvas work yourself. It is a practical book that can help you save money. Lots of projects which beginers can follow.
