I am writing in respect to endorse this book written and produced by David Winchester of Burnley College.Having met Dave when he was Chairman of the National Association of Plastering Lecturers... More > (NAPL). I have always found him to be very passionate about the plastering industry and 100% behind improving the quality of training for the younger generation just entering into the trade. I think it was the lack of level three resources which inspired Dave to produce this book; Columns, Cornices and Curves. As a level three course leader I have always been inspired by Dave as a guy that really cares and gives all he can to the trade it was for this reason that I purchased a quantity of these books and found them to be an excellent resource for the students, Dave has managed to pitch the contents at the right level and style for the learners of today. I have to say that using this publication made the delivery of the level three so much easier than without.
