non-fiction: art & calligraphy designs, crafts/hobbies (woodworking with scroll saw), glazed plaques

This book demonstrates an unusual technique in cutting out scroll saw designs onto wood plaques and then glazing them to a super hard and mirror-like finish that are 3-dimensional in appearance when mounted on walls. There are 64 patterns included for your personal use or to make as gifts for your family and friends. These images include Chinese calligraphy characters, stylized English alphabets and unique artistic designs. You can also create your own designs and convert your images into templates which can be re-used multiple times. The possibilities are endless with what your own creativity can achieve.

This may be the first book specifically dedicated to this "lost genre" technique of making glazed wood-cut plaques that look like works of art.

I think there is a story on my journey to become a creative author in my senior years. I am a retired professional engineer and I wrote my first book when I was 70 years old. Now I am 73 and have written and published three books - all of different genres! The fourth book I am currently writing will be a fictional novel, another genre. This shows that writing creativity can happen at any age! I learned how to do everything to format and self-publish books including making all the cover designs for my books.
