5.0 out of 5 stars
A must for do-it-yourselfers,
By john hostetler (Albion, MI USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: 1001 Do-It-Yourself Tips: Hints tips and shortcuts for your home (Paperback)
This book was the best I have ever seen of its kind (not that I necessarily collect these books). Just browsing through it, I picked up several useful tips; simple things, but I hadn't thought of them. For example, using a comb to hold tiny nails or brads (p. 24). Another example, filling the bathtub with water before caulking between it and the wall, to eliminate the tub's movement which would crack the caulk (p. 127). We borrowed the book from the local library; I can't seem to get the book away from my wife, and she isn't usually given to reading such books. Illustrations are excellent. Projects are described in a step-by-step manner, making it easy to follow.

This review is from: 1001 Do-It-Yourself Tips: Hints tips and shortcuts for your home (Paperback)
We have a late Victorian cottage in need of lots of TLC, and I find this book to be a great resource on many different aspects of old home maintenance and repair. I definitely recommend it.
