Confidence Building Directions, Inspiring Work,
By Clarke Green "CAG" (Kennett Square, PA USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Fine Decorative Boxes: Designing & Making Original Works of Art (Paperback)
Excellent woodworking comes from doing things in the proper sequence with the proper materials and tools. Andrew Crawford creates boxes of incredible perfection and beauty. These jem-quality pieces are inspiring, especially when he deconstructs his methods and makes them understandable. Step-by-step books can be tiresome and limiting but Crawford's brief, yet complete, directions accompanied by good photographs and clear drawings build confidence in the reader.

I got this book because a friend and fellow woodworker hip me to it, after i got it i found out it is a real good book with alot of info on how to make the boxes in the book and boxes in general. I haven't made one yet but with this book of encouragement I will have no problem getting a project from it's pages done.

just bought this book,
By "galgrim" (Rose City, Michigan United States) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Fine Decorative Boxes: Designing & Making Original Works of Art (Paperback)
I just bought this book by mail at a closeout. I haven't tried any of the patterns, but the designs disappointed me. They look like they are from the 1970's. There is not one box in the book that inspired me enough to read the whole description or even consider going to the trouble of making it. I'm glad it was only five bucks.
