Wooden puzzles are great projects both for the woodworker who builds them and for the end user who'll derive hours of pleasure trying to solve them. They can be built from scraps of wood with just a few tools that any hobbyist woodworker will have in his or her shop. The key to successful puzzle-making is in maintaining a high level of accuracy so that puzzles go together (and come apart) smoothly and satisfyingly. Menold explains how to build a number of jigs that will allow you to make wooden puzzles to the same exacting tolerances that this master puzzle maker achieves with his collection of classic puzzles.

The elegant illustrations in this colouring book were produced by The Dream State Studio, a team of gifted illustrators from Taiwan. The drawings are an intriguing combination of intricately drawn patterns which form stunning pictures inside each whole drawing, so that when the pages are looked at closely, individual designs are visible within each sketch. For example the image on the page might be a butterfly, but when looked at carefully, the wings are precisely drawn lion heads, which in turn are made up of even smaller, delicate flower motifs. There is plenty of scope for colourers to get imaginative with this beautifully, original book. As well as providing an antidote to the anxieties of busy life, this title offers artists the chance to look at a kaleidoscopic world and calm themselves as they colour in.
