Advanced Braidwork for the Model Horse
from the Intro:
"This book was conceived when I found it incredibly difficult to condense the Braidwork part of my first book, Guide to Making Model Horse Tack (1998). This was my favorite field in all model horse tackmaking, a specialization which grew over time, and I pioneered and developed it to amazing lengths and depths with great joy. I promised myself I'd come back later and write a whole book on this subject alone.
Twenty-six years went by.
Oh, the muse tried,..."
Dedicated work has been underway on my second book since July of 2022. At this point, after a year and 8 months, I can say we're past the halfway point. I think things will go faster now that so much background and foundation has been laid down! I'm hopingthe book will be ready by fall of this year. November 6, 2024, will be the twenty-sixth(26th) Anniversary of the publishing of the Guide.
The goal, again, is to release .pdfs [portable document formats]. Like the Guide, it will be sold through PayPal. (We still take checks too!). Unlike the Guide, the price will be somewhere around $25. When you see how much is in it, you'llrealize what a bargain that is! When the book is ready, you will hear about it on my FaceBook pages, my Instagram, my blogspot and here. Meanwhile, enjoy threeblog posts about progress on this enormous project, surely my magnum opus.
