Whittling for Beginners
Welcome to the world of whittlingWhittling, the practice of using a knife to carve wood, has enthralled people for generations. You can release your imagination and establish a connection with nature by making stunning and complicated designs with just a few basic tools and a piece of wood. The amazing world of whittling, its rewards, and how to begin your own whittling adventure will all be discussed in this section. The history of whittling is extensive and goes back thousands of years. Ancient civilizations like Egypt and Rome, where woodcarving was highly valued and utilized for both functional and decorative purposes, are where this craft first emerged. Whittling techniques have changed and spread throughout countries over the years, becoming an essential component of their artistic heritage.
The Techniques of Rug Weaving
Learn from a Master How to Create the Most Beautiful Rugs'With inventiveness and a trained scientific mind, this great weaver has designed his way out of the slow, traditional methods . . . Through research and discovery he has broadened the whole range of rug techniques. It is the sharing of these discoveries that makes this book so important . . . . Mr Collingwood writes-and illustrates-with the same grace, with the same brilliant organization with which he designs and weaves." Jack Lenor LarsenPeter Collingwood continues to exert an outsized influence in the art of weaving beautifully intricate and textured rugs; a master weaver, he created complex patterns and textures which gave his rugs an unmatched richness and depth. This classic guide shares Collingwood's knowledge, experience, and innovative methods.The Techniques of Rug Weaving begins by discussing various yarns, the selection and assembly of equipment, and the use of specialized tools and techniques. This guide showcases his abiding interest in the structure and texture of rugs, and he describes in detail the vast variety of techniques, some not widely known outside of professional circles, which can be employed to broaden a weaver's repertoire and skill set. These are explored in chapters on plain-woven wetface rugs, blockweaves, pick-up weaves, warp and weft twining, warpface rugs, and all types of rug finish. In addition to well over 500 diagrams, the guide contains more than 150 illustrative photographs in black-and-white and color. In his preface, Collingwood plainly states that this book is written from the point of view of a professional rug weaver, but he goes on to say that he sees no reason why hobby weavers should not benefit from and aspire to the beauty and quality created by those who weave rugs for a living. This book, clearly written and thorough in every aspect of the craft, embodies Collingwood's philosophy and will help weavers of any experience improve their skills and develop their craft.This book is also available from Echo Point Books as a paperback (ISBN 1648373321).

Grand Battles Napoleon
"The Napoleonic wars began in the ashes of revolution, regicide and the new French Republic and ended with the exile of an Emperor." Grand Battles Napoleon is a strategic wargame where you, as the General, are responsible for a Napoleonic Corps. The smallest tactical units are regiments of infantry, regiments of cavalry and artillery batteries. Players move these units in formations, called divisions, across the games table using a unique initiative system. A turn is not You-Go-I-Go. Instead, players activate divisions based on a modified D6 roll. The winner acts or forces his opponent to act. This continues round by round until all divisions on both sides have had a chance to act. Games are incredibly fluid with each player 'always in the game each turn', acting or reacting, in or out of turn, to the opponent's troops or rolling for initiative to activate more troops. Games can be played in any scale from 6mm through to 28mm and charts are available for each scale. Books will be available through all good game's shops globally. We have a very active and well supported Facebook page with loads of free downloads. You can also find free downloads at the website as well.. Or our email address is info@siegeworksstudios.com.au Our staff is always happy to answer games questions, list building, how to run tournaments and campaigns using our rules and any other questions about our games, playtest groups and future releases. Happy Gaming Drew Birkmyre
Glamoury
Glamoury is a system of beauty based upon the four elements. In Glamoury, the letters in your name correspond to a number. The pattern of sound these numbers make is your frequency. When you match your personal frequency to the colors, shapes, and textures of your element, the most beautiful things about you show. The way Glamoury works is similar to how an opera singer can shatter a glass by singing a note equal to the frequency of the glass. By wearing your element's colors and styles, you are matching its frequency to you. This raises your vibration to a higher level, allowing the beauty within you to radiate outward.A Note From The AuthorMy inspiration to create Glamoury started two decades ago. It came from a vision during a ten-day meditation. I saw Glamoury as a cosmic stream that emanated from a goddess on the blue star of Sirius. This stream then reached earth by nine Glamours whom each spoke a piece of her celestial wisdom. I realized these Glamours had been known throughout time by different names. In Egypt, they were the Ennead. In India, they were called the Navadurgas, and in ancient Greece, the Muses. By any name, the Glamours are agents of change who bring about transformation by revealing the beauty within.

Mesopotamian Archaeology
THE Mesopotamian civilization shares with the Egyptian civilization the honour of being one of the two earliest civilizations in the world, and although M. J. de Morgan's excavations at Susa the ruined capital of ancient Elam, have brought to light the elements of an advanced civilization which perhaps even antedates that of Mesopotamia, it must be remembered that the Sumerians who, so far as our present knowledge goes, were the first to introduce the arts of life and all that they bring with them, into the low-lying valley of the Tigris and Euphrates, probably themselves emigrated from the Elamite plateau on the east of the Tigris; at all events the Sumerians expressed both "mountain" and "country" by the same writing-sign, the two apparently being synonymous from their point of view; in support of this theory of a mountain-home for the Sumerians, we may perhaps further explain the temple-towers, the characteristic feature of most of the religious edifices in Mesopotamia, as a conscious or unconscious imitation in bricks and mortar of the hills and ridges of their native-land, due to an innate aversion to the dead-level monotony of the Babylonian plain, while it is also a significant fact that in the earliest period Shamash the Sun-god is represented with one foot resting on a mountain, or else standing between two mountains. However this may be, the history of the Elamites was intimately wrapped up with that of the dwellers on the other side of the Tigris, from the earliest times down to the sack of Susa by Ashur-bani-pal, king of Assyria, in the seventh century. Both peoples adopted the cuneiform system of writing, so-called owing to the wedge-shaped formation of the characters, the wedges being due to the material used in later times for all writing purposes-the clay of their native soil-: both spoke an agglutinative, as opposed to an inflexional language like our own, and both inherited a similar culture. A further, and in its way a more convincing argument in support of the mountain-origin theory is afforded by the early art of the Sumerians. On the most primitive seal cylinders1 we find trees and animals whose home is in the mountains, and which certainly were not native to the low-lying plain of Babylonia. The cypress and the cedar-tree are only found in mountainous districts, but a tree which must be identified with one or the other of them is represented on the early seal cylinders; it is of course true that ancient Sumerian rulers fetched cedar wood from the mountains for their building operations, and therefore the presence of such a tree on cylinder seals merely argues a certain acquaintance with the tree, but Ceteris paribus it is more reasonable to suppose that the material earthly objects depicted, were those with which the people were entirely familiar and not those with which they were merely casually acquainted. Again, on the early cylinders the mountain bull, known as the Bison bonasus, assumes the r繫le played in later times by the lowland water-buffalo. This occurs with such persistent regularity that the inference that the home of the Sumerians in those days was in the mountains is almost inevitable. Again, as Ward points out, the composite man-bull Ea-bani, the companion of Gilgamesh, has always the body of a bison, never that of a buffalo. So too the frequent occurrence of the ibex, the oryx, and the deer with branching horns, all argues in the same direction, for the natural home of all these animals lay in the mountains.
