This book has a fantastic collection of outdoor projects for the wood worker. Each step of each project is clearly explained and illustrated. Norms personality is certainly carved into these pages which makes it easy to understand and enjoyable to read. If you are a fan of The New Yankee Workshop, this is a must add book for your collection.

This is another must have book for any New Yankee - and it's a hard one to find. I refer to it often. There are a lot of really good outdoor projects in this book and I have built several of them. I recommend this book for the projects and to any New Yankee who wants to complete their Norm Book Collection.
5.0 out of 5 stars
