Hmmmm, this is a tough DVD to recommend.
First, it is a voice over slide show, not a live action video.
Second, it does not really show you in detail solutions to many issues.
It is a fine presentation of how the author created jigs specifically for a very interesting table.
I just can't recommend this, as the jig info is not enough (in my opinion) to justify the cost.
While I appreciate the experience and dedication that it has taken Mr. Marks to accomplish the task he set out or himself, which was no small task, I don't think that it qualifies as true curvilinear work or jig making. I would like to see how he would accomplish a form that curves in more than one plane. I am a professional woodworker so maybe my expectations were too high, however the information gained was not up to the cost of the video.
