"Metal Artist's Workbench" provides readers with everything they need to know to use the jeweller's saw by deconstructing the skill into two components: understanding exactly how the tool works and then how to actually use it for maximum efficiency. The book is divided into two parts: a thorough techniques section, followed by 15 projects - including pins, pendants, display art, a photo frame and more. In addition to de-mystifying the saw itself, Thomas gives readers adequate information on the jeweller's bench pin - the 'silent partner' in the sawing process. Sidebars containing photos of several established artists' own bench pins will offer provocative breaks in the book, as will many inspiring gallery photos of Thomas' and own work and that of others.
A professional artist for over 40 years, Thomas Mann is best known for his "Techno-Romantic" style of jewellery, which juxtaposes contemporary technology and construction techniques with historical romantic imagery. Originally from Pennsylvania, the artist exhibited his work at the Jazz & Heritage Festival in 1977 and has called New Orleans home ever since.
