Two dozen projects for contemporary, smartly designed wooden pieces are presented for enthusiastic carpenters who have only limited time to spend on their hobby. Projects range from easy ones for beginners to ambitious undertakings for experienced carpenters. Each begins with a list of essential tools, and then proceeds with a drawn-to-scale diagram of the item and full-color, step-by-step photos with explanatory captions for completing the undertaking. Just some of the many projects include: Hanging kitchen wall rack (for beginners) ... Arts and crafts wall mirror (for beginners) ... Turned fruit bowl (intermediate level) ... Kitchen trolley (intermediate level) ... Bathroom cabinet (advanced level) ... Adjustable porch chair (advanced level). A detailed section describing basic tools, techniques, and different kinds of lumber serves as a useful reference to handicrafters familiar with woodworking, and is indispensable to those new to the hobby. Here are great ideas for spending enjoyable leisure hours while also producing handsome, useful objects for the home.

This review is from: Quick & Easy Projects for the Weekend Carpenter: Over 25 Simple & Stylish Pieces to Make for Your Home (Paperback)
I bought this for my father in law a few years ago for Christmas, and it's still his favorite. He's made just about everything in it. Beginners and advanced wood workers will find lots of projects. My husband made reclining deck chairs from it, and they look great!

This review is from: Quick & Easy Projects for the Weekend Carpenter: Over 25 Simple & Stylish Pieces to Make for Your Home (Paperback)
If you are a woodworker with zest, many of the projects are too basic and I wouldn't recommend this book to midlevel woodworkers.
Good Enough for someone just starting in woodworking..
