Extract from back cover of dvd:
In this episode, Eli continues to demonstrate his methods of spindle turning by producing a pair of elegant candlesticks from a pre-determined plan; demonstrating the practice of copy-turning. Using a laminated blank made from maple and ebony, Eli puts his own twist on the Rude Osolnik form by embelishing with decoration inspired from a trip to Japan (the decorated face), combined with the Jerusalem influence (the plain face). This is the sixth film in Eli's series of expert tuition in woodturning. It is intended primarily to introduce you to his unique range of tools, how they are intended to be used and how to keep them sharp! Starting at Beginner's Level, we will take you through a full course in woodturning; covering Intermediate Level and finally culminating with the series at Expert Level.
