The Woodworker's Studio Handbook: Traditional and Contemporary Techniques for the Home Woodworking Shop (3) (Studio Handbook Series) - Softcover

"Woodworker and first-time author Whitman shines in this addition to Quarry's studio handbook series. Shop layout, tools, and materials are followed by a dozen projects that illustrate different techniques. The projects are organized well, with tools and materials lists and thumbnail instructional photos. The book's illustrations and design are top-notch and attractive. VERDICT: With its broad range of techniques and projects, this is more appropriate for an intermediate woodworker, as beginners will not have the needed equipment or skills. While more focused books on specific woodworking tools and techniques are available, this is a good overview. Recommended for larger public libraries." - Library Journal "Woodworker and first-time author Whitman shines in this addition to Quarry s studio handbook series.
