About this title

About the Author:

Landis is a freelance editor and writer on various woodworking subjects.

From Library Journal:

Here are visits via text, color photos, and diagrams to a variety of woodworking shops that turn out products ranging from kitchen cabinets and chairs to window frames and guitars. In a chatty style, Landis ( The Workbench Book , Taunton Pr., 1987) describes locations, layouts of power tools and benches, machinery, buildings, and storage arrangements. Most of the shops visited are commercial (i.e., providing full-time, profitable work) and range in size from a single person to a crew operation. The professional woodworker planning to build a shop or to improve current conditions will find much of interest here. The home hobbyist owning mostly portable tools, or even a combination system like a Shopsmith will gain only a few ideas. For libraries with a large professional woodworking clientele.
