WeekendMiniaturist 288 Posted November 19, 2016 Report Share Posted November 19, 2016 Recently, I was researching tool chests and Lost Art Press came up in my search results. If other miniaturists are interested in making Campaign Furniture, I thought this book might be a good resource. It is interesting that Lost Art Press makes their re-issued books available in digital pdf format too, and you can buy it electronically for half price of the printed version... at least this gives us a less expensive option for research. I have not personally seen a copy of the original or re-issued book and only know Lost Art Press from reading the blog. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

ElgaKoster 540 Posted November 20, 2016 Report Share Posted November 20, 2016 Tamra did you notice that they have an excerpt from each book to download for free? It is a feature they only introduced recently. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
WeekendMiniaturist 288 Posted November 22, 2016 Author Report Share Posted November 22, 2016 Thanks for pointing the group to the digital sample; it is great to see a portion of the book before purchasing. I would like to try that 3 way bolt, too. I wonder if I can actually go to the store and purchase low carbon, not hardened hardware. I also liked these instructions... "You can blacken the hardware, or remove the hardware’s zinc coating using a citric acid solution and let it patinate naturally. The hole in the 1/2" nut is a nice place to add a wooden cap or a small turned finial." 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
