The BEST and ONLY book of its kind!,
By A Customer
This review is from: Building Snowshoes (Spiral-bound)
I have wanted to make my own snowshoes since I was 14 years old but did not know how. I stumbled upon this book about a year ago and knew this is what I was looking for. I have read it several times and am in the process of building my steam box. This is the best, and as far as I can tell, only book on how to build snowshoe. It is extremely clear on the lacing and frame building proceedures. Thanks Gil!

Go Snowshoeing!,
By A Customer
This review is from: Building Snowshoes (Spiral-bound)
Having misspent a great deal of time in the outdoors from the Blue Ridge Mountains to the Alaska Range, I've wanted a quality pair of snowshoes for some time - and let's face it: plastic just doesn't cut it for serious outdoors gear, and neither do the mass-produced snowshoes meant to be hung over the fireplace - if you want good gear, build it yourself! This book is a detailed shop guide to building a pair of snowshoes that will beat anything you can buy. The directions are clear and well illustrated, and perhaps best of all the auther doesn't assume that you're a master woodworker with a complete shop at your disposal. There are several other books on how to build snowshoes (I have several of them), but my advice is don't waste your time looking for them - get this book first and use the time you saved to build a pair of snowshoes!
