5 out of 5 stars A Great way to start papermaking!   April 30, 2006
  2 out of 2 found this review helpful

This is a great video for someone who wants to learn to make paper. Catherine Nash is an experienced papermaker and teacher who knows how to communicate her passion for papermaking in a wonderful, clear way. Starting with the basics of making paper from recycled pulp and a kitchen blender, Nash then moves to more sophisticated techniques, explaining everything clearly from beginning to end. The whole video is packed with a lot of information, enough to keep someone busy for a long time. Technically speaking, the video is well filmed and edited and pleasant to look at. It is done professionally and everything flows well from beginning to end.

What's great is that one can rewind and review the material and move on to the next level when ready. It's like having a private tutor in your own home, whenever you are ready to learn.

As a papermaker myself, I have found this video to be a wonderful reference guide and I learned a lot by watching it. It helps me structure the papermaking workshops I give from time to time. It's well worth the money and I can't wait for volume II to come out!
