Creative Woodturning Projects
Creative Woodturning Projects presents 16 inspiring woodturning projects that incorporate innovative techniques, created by one of the UK’s leading turners.
This collection is compiled from the archives of Woodturning magazine and was initially commissioned as challenges by the late Editor, Mark Baker.

Richard shares his experiences tackling each challenge from start to finish, detailing both the struggles and the successes. His stories are sure to inspire both novice and experienced turners alike.
The projects cover a wide range of practical, decorative, and fun objects, including:
- Boxes
- Games and puzzles
- Decorative techniques
- Unique items such as a chess set and Celtic knots
- And much more
Each process is described in detail, with explanations of how each challenge was approached and completed, accompanied by stunning photographs of the finished pieces.
