       DEDICATION

      Writing a book on woodturning takes a long time away from your family, and I am blessed with a wife and family who understand the time constraints needed to fulfill that obligation. Thank you, Lenora (my best friend), who assists, guides, and offers a unique perspective to this obsession I have with turning!

       ABOUT THE AUTHOR

      Barry Gross’s love of woodworking started as a child, when he would build “boats” out of 2x4s and nails and then try to float them in the bay (unsuccessfully). He purchased his first lathe at the age of 15 and started to turn small spindles with little success because there was no real instruction available. There were no DVDs or turning clubs to advise him as there are today. Later on, however, Barry returned to woodworking and the lathe to create pieces of furniture. It was not until he received a lesson on pen making that his love of turning solidified. He has turned thousands of pens and small turnings using all types of materials. His pens have been purchased by the White House to give as gifts for foreign dignitaries, and many celebrities have purchased his fine writing instruments.

      Barry also belongs to a number of turning clubs and is a member of the American Association of Woodturners, where he has demonstrated at their national symposiums. He demonstrates his unique brand of pen making at turning clubs and woodworking shows throughout the country. For the past few years, Barry has been teaching at Arrowmont School of Arts & Crafts and Marc Adams School of Woodworking. In addition to authoring five turning books, he has released two DVDs on pen making and published over 70 articles in various woodworking magazines, including Woodturning Design and Fine Woodworking. In August 2012, he purchased woodturning supply company Arizona Silhouette and combined it with his own BG Artforms LLC to form a larger company that offers turning supplies worldwide.

       ACKNOWLEDGMENTS

      First, I want to thank Alan Giagnocavo, Peg Couch, Gretchen Bacon, and the rest of the Fox Family for giving me the opportunity to produce another book on turning for Fox Chapel Publishing. Thanks elso to Greg Heisey and Scott Kriner for photography.

      For the finer points of turning, my friend Ed Ryan has been magnanimously offering his advice and guidance to me for years. I give full credit to Ed for showing me as well as hundreds of other turners the “ABC’s” of tool control. Whenever instructing students, using the “Ed Ryan” method always makes the subject of tool control much easier for students to comprehend.

      The following companies and individuals, listed alphabetically, have either provided tools, supplies, or invaluable advice, and I want to thank them for their time and patience in assisting me with my questions.
