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.

Store Description

Shadow Books sells all manner of second-hand, out of print and rare books; but not popular paperback fiction. If we have a speciality, it is a broad academic one embracing the humanities fields of history, politics, classic literature, art history, media, history of ideas. We pride ourselves on setting our prices - quality for quality - at the low end of the range, on the scrupulous way we describe our books, on the rapidity with which we dispatch orders, and on our prompt and friendly response to customers and their queries.
