About the Author
Alan Peters is an award-winning woodworker with more than 45 years of professional experience.
From Library Journal
Peters, a British craftsman, takes a "biographical" approach in advising readers about establishing a furniture workshop, equipping it, and managing the business side. He offers good information on his particular methods of designing, finding customers, working to commissions, training help, and batching production so as to have work when business is slow. After describing his own preferred techniques of construction, gluing, veneering, and finishing, Peters gives brief instructions and plans for building a dining table and chairs, a student's desk, and six other projects. While interesting, the material on the British craft movement, vocational training, and British business-labor laws will be of little use to an American reader seeking advice on starting a cabinet-furniture shop.
