    SimCity 4 – Windows Review SimCity 4 is a very fun, somewhat addictive game.

It’s really inconvienent and you lose everythng that wasn’t saved up until that point, so I’d recommend [...] […]

A must for those embarking on a career in Jewllery Making
 
Review Date: October 5, 2000
Reviewer: ,
Prior to my wife's intention to return to college as a mature student, I purchased several books for her on 'Silversmithing', and it is Jinks McGrath's book that she values most highly. In fact her lecturer reccomended it to all the students on the Jewllery Making & Design course. It is an invaluable guide to the beginner with its easy to follow instructions and information. It is well laid out with precise information and an easy reference source to fall back on. You won't be disappointed.
Great illustrations & details
 
Review Date: August 1, 1998
Reviewer: ,
The author includes a wide variety of jewelry making techniques primarily dealing with metalsmithing. Full color pictures wonderfully illustrate each section. Simple wire projects, such as making jump rings to more advanced techniques such as inlaying are shown and described with enough detail to understand, but not overwhelm the reader. I'd recommend this book for the beginner who wants to learn about jewelry making, or for those who just want to learn more about jewelry making. Also included is a Themes section of artistic jewelry that will inspire you.
a great reference for beginner

This book is well written and it's a very picturesque encyclopedia. Not too technical but still very informative with the author's step by step format. Those of you who are pursuing Jewlery as a hobby or a career will want to add this book to your library.

    The Encyclopedia of Jewelry-Making Techniques: A Comprehensive Visual Guide to Traditional and Contemporary Techniques

    Very informative. Good pictures.


    Seller never shipprd product. A rip-off!
    Seller should be dis-barred from selling thru Amazon. Lost my money.....went tp EBAY and got the product quickly.


    Review of Publisher
    As one previous reviewer stated, I have no intention of purchasing books that rely on pictures when the pictures are pulled from the previews. If you feel the same, please contact both Amazon and the publisher directly and let them know they are losing sales. I've noticed many publishers observing this practice and it needs to be curbed. We've been putting computers in our homes for 30 years and so many in business and industry still don't have a clue how to do it right....


    The cover is pretty
    I want to say upfront that I do not own this book. That said, I will not buy this book because the publisher has made Amazon remove all the photos from from the sample preview. When I intend to buy a book for crafting I wand to see the type a caliber of projecs included in the book. In a bookstore do you pull a craft book from the shelf, take it to the cashier, pay for it, and then, and only than, open it to see what is inside? The previwes of the books is what, I feel, has set Amazon apart and is why I have spent several thousand dollars on this website over the years. Thank you all for listening to my rantings, I am fearful that this might be a growing trend and wanted to let my opinion be known befor it is too late. DJS


    Valuable Resource
    Nearly fifteen years later, the skills and techniques described here are still very much a part of the everyday application for jewelry makers of all kinds. Unlike many books of this period, McGrath includes photographs alongside instruction. Other books by this author of value are "The Jewelers Book of Decorative Finishes" and "The Complete Jewelry Making Course". All three compliment one another nicely.
