Synopsis

About this title

Review:

Sometimes an afterthought and a detail overlooked by many, knobs, handles, and hinges, when made of fine woods and well crafted, can transform an otherwise run-of-the-mill piece of furniture into a real work of art and a keepsake. Laminated, grooved, pierced, turned, beaded, carved, inset, and sliding are some of the many styles and designs outlined for hinges, knobs, and handles made of wood, with full instructions, diagrams, and illustrations of 23 unique projects. For the beginning woodworker or the professional, Alan and Gill Bridgewater have put together a truly one-of-a-kind book. --Mark A. Hetts
