  • Just what I wanted

    I wanted a used copy of this book. This is a lightly used copy of the book. I love the book, and there isn’t any damage that would impede my reading, so I’m happy!

  • Well worth having if you do metal clay.

    It has lots of detail, esp for silver, but plenty for base metals as well. Has projects at my level (lower intermediate) and also to look forward to as hopefully skills improve.
