DESCRIPTION:
Metal, written by designers who are also manufacturers, will acquaint designers, architects, and sculptors with the basic processes available to them in metal fabrication, so that they can begin their design process with a sense of how their work might be built. This book is not intended to instruct in the use of machinery, but rather provides a framework of possibilities for people who design custom metalwork.. This informative volume on designing, detailing, and specifying metal in various applications is a much-needed reference tool for all professionals and students working with this vital material
Review Joe Vidich As someone who has a background in the fine arts and who has recently began working at a metal shop I found this book to be an extremely valuable and understandable introduction into the world of metal fabrication. It is well writen with many color photograghs. It is not ment for the advanced metal worker, except maybe as a reference, but as a beginer it is a must read.
