Customer Reviews

At this time, a definitive resource manual.
Mr. Graham has the unique approach to glass engraving that you do not see often. He describes the occupation in easy to understand language and the techniques seem easy to master. Because I read this book, I intend to pursue glass engraving as a hobby now and maybe something serious when I retire. Thanks Boyd.

The essential, must have, glass engraving book
The explanations are clear and concise, and it covers everything from the basic tools you need to get going, first lessons and the basic cuts, how to build a drip table for water cooling, more sophisticated cuts, and quite a bit on polishing and displaying, and where to find glass, equipment, and supplies. Plenty of drawings and photographs which complement the lessons.

This book is simply the most bang for the buck of any book I've ever bought on any subject. And the pictures are well done, which is a ture rarity in a glass book.
