I'm sorry I bought this one before reading all of the Amazon reviews. The projects involve a lot more metalworking and other equipment than I have or am willing to invest in, and, alas, I found them all very ugly. Nothing I'd ever put time into making for myself, wear if someone gave it to me, or make for anyone else. Also, the author's narration, where she pretends to be an archaeologist finding the bits of rubbish she uses as raw material, is very annoying - just tell how to make the projects, please.

This book will get those creative juices flowing and then some. Lots of excellent pictures with descriptions about the item. You will find yourself going through your old scrap metal and jewelry pieces to see what you can create with it. Lots of beautiful eye candy. A excellent book to have in your craft library.
