Description: [This eBook is not a 'Mokuhankan' production, but in the interest of helping spread the word about this craft, we are happy to act as a provider for this very useful item.]

Terry McKenna is an Australian woodblock printmaker living in Karuizawa Japan, where he runs the 'Karuizawa Mokuhanga School', a place where training in the Japanese woodblock techniques is available to visitors from around the world (and online). Terry has developed a comprehensive curriculum to guide students through the process, and this eBook is a supplementary text adapted from materials he has created for his online workshops. (His primary text - Mokuhanga Fundamentals, is also available, here)

"Everything you wanted to know about sharpening your Japanese tools, but were afraid to ask." 70+ pages of detailed information covering this necessary aspect of the craft, including - importantly - the full line of V and U gouges used by modern workers in this field.

Terry has prepared a 'sampler' of this volume, to give you a taste of the full content: [download - 4.5 Mb].

[Note: as with all the eBooks in this catalogue, after purchase you will be sent a personalized link where you can download the book in .pdf format. You will not receive a physical book.]
