5.0 out of 5 stars A MUST HAVE for any Metalsmith, 8 Sep 1997

By A Customer

If you can only afford one metalsmithing book this is the one to get! This is the best introduction to metalsmithing book I have ever found. It is chock full of information to help one get started working with metal. This book is divided into 8 major sections including; materials, surfaces, shaping, joining, casting, stones, mechanisms, and tools. It also includes a handy reference section that I use nearly every time I'm in the shop. The book is full of illustrations, Mr. McCreight is pleasing concise with text. The book seems to have the budget metalsmith in mind offering many low cost methods and tools. The book even includes plans for two home built Jewelry benches, one inexpensive pine and the other a nicer hardwood. I made the inexpensive one 6 or seven years ago while I was in college and still use it today! The book is also thoughtfully bound with a metal spiral wire binding. This allows the book to lie flat on you table while you work. Hats off to Mr. McCreight. Order this one Today.

5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent spiral bound reference guide., 22 April 1999

By A Customer

I keep this book closeby at all times. Lots of technical data and useful charts. If you work with Jewelry or just create Works of Art out of various metals, this book will help out. Contains just about everything from Agate to Zinc. Nice softcover book too.

4.0 out of 5 stars A very good overview, 9 Dec 2003

By A Customer

As an apprentice goldsmith, I found this book to be a fantastic supplement to what I'm learning now. The text is well-written and clear. There could be some improvements to the illustrations and some topics are covered too briefly (which is understandable, given the amount of material that has been covered). I would definitely recommend this book to all interested in metalwork.
