He will cover each of the following:
-
How he uses photography and computers and then pencil and paper to generate a useful design.
-
Aesthetics of a good photograph - a good photo is critical to an effective finished workpiece.
-
The veneer selection process
-
The mechanics of cutting and assembling veneer using the packet cutting method

Tools and materials
This should be a great class!
