Can anyone recommend a good text on pathworking, theory and practice. It's a skill I'd like to refine and add to my magickal repetoire. Feel free to PM me, or just reply here.

Nick Farrell has a book "Magical Pathworkings" that I have found excellent. It is less about the tree of life and more about the art of pathworking itself. He includes several chapters of samples that you can follow and how to create your own plus inner temple work.
Ben Rowe has an excellent article on scrying that over half the text is about how to pathwork and build the inner temple.
Also if pathworking the tree of life is what you are after Dolores Ashcroft- Nowicki has several books including "The Shining Paths" which cover it in great detail. Also Dion Fortune in "Mystical Qaballah" covers it generally in the back. Regardie also has several tips in his book "A Garden of Pomegranies" which the cicero's have added to the end several pathworkings on the tree but they are more intended for group work.

I personally use Bill Witcomb's "The Magician's Reflection" as refference guide to pathworking. Its pretty indepth and I think a good source for a variety of techniques and models to choose from. His other book "the Magician's Companion" is also relevant but doesn't deal so intensively with pathworking. The first book will help you generate your own rituals.
