About this title

Synopsis

In this practical guide, the authors take novice woodworkers step by step through all aspects of working with wood. They begin with a visual directory of the most popular types of wood and their uses, together with the hand and power tools required to master the basic skills. They proceed to demonstrate the range of woodworking techniques from measuring and marking to sawing, planing and using simple power tools. This is followed by 25 projects for the home and garden, using different types of wood and including MDF. Each project is illustrated with step-by-step photographs and assembly diagrams. Simple variations in style and materials are also shown.
