3.0 out of 5 stars Riddled with many errors
I bought the book for the Adirondack set plans (Chair, ottoman, and table) and while the finish product is very nice and I am very pleased with it, the plans are full of errors. Cut lengths are not listed right for legs, the plans call for 1X6 stock when it should have been 1X4, etc.

5.0 out of 5 stars A godsend to inexperienced woodworkers!, October 12, 2000
This review is from: Quick and Easy Furniture You Can Build with Dimensional Lumber (Paperback)
This book is a collection of 13 projects (small cupboard, blanket chest, box planter, country bookcase, storage step stool, window box, small sideboard, Adirondack chair, Adirondack table, Adirondack ottoman, picket planter, plate rack, and message center); complete with plans, supply list, and step-by-step instructions with color(!) photographs. Also included are chapters on choosing lumber, choosing tools, construction techniques, and finishing ideas.

This wonderful book is a godsend to inexperienced woodworkers! The basic idea behind this book is projects that can be made with a minimum of skills and power tools - which includes using lumber that does not need to be resized for the project. This is a great book.
