    Practicle Toys Beginning To Expert Turners
  

*by M***3 on Reviewed in the United States on September 4, 2019*

I liked the general design and general information at the beginning of the book that is very useful to beginning turners. There is a good ratio of text to pictures, making it easy to understand what needs to be done to make the to;, while at the same time, giving the reader enough design license to add his/her own unique features to the toy. I used the book as a guide for making some holiday toys to give away.

    An essential guide for the big kid would like to make safe toys for others or himself
  

*by H***N on Reviewed in the United States on December 21, 2013*

Mr. Raffan's book is meticulosly written.  He provides clear succint instriuction.  Satety is is stressed in  lathe operation and creating toys that do not present  choking hazzards.As a general pedicitrician ,I need my hands and sight intact to work.  Further,  I must  first do no harm to thechildren I take care of.  I purchased this book to create age appropriate safe toys."Turning Toys" instructions are clear and images are excellent. The project selection is good, but ,does not offer as many projects as I would have liked. for older children:.  I would have appreciated an emphasis onkinetic or spining toys, especially thrown tops: "Duncan " type,of various sizes,hollow centured, tops that flipover when spun, ones with hollow centers.,  creating ones which from multiple  hardwoods. .A section forturning dazzling yo-yos would have been great. These were the  rugged toys  from my childhood Mr. Raffan 's toy plans are selected to allow progressive skill development. I suggest reading the entire book, (with careful emphasis on the illustrations) and completing all the projects as well.as well. This would provide  the skills and criterion to create  design and create safe new toys. Animprovement  for future issues or an addendum to this one would be oneline accessto a video to use with the text. Finally a web site for students of this  book to show their creations would be very nice
