Shaker Furniture,
By BRUCE PIERCE (Virginia) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Shaker Furniture (Art of Woodworking) (Spiral-bound)
As an amature woodworker interested in plans and methods for building Shaker style furniture, I found this book very informative. It includes precise instructions for building two Shaker style chairs, a bench, three tables, a pie safe, a clock, a step stool, oval boxes and a pegboard. It also includes directions for making jigs to simplify the the construction of several of the projects. The jig for routing dovetails for a candlestand collumn while it is still on the lathe was shown in greater detail than I have seen before. The diagrams and illustrated step-by-step instrctions are easy to understand and show construction details that mere measured drawings do not. For instance, the methods for hanging a drawer and attaching a table top were especially interesting to me since they were a little different than what I commonly see. This is a book written for amature woodworks like myself who appreciate well documented plans for interesting and usefull pieces of furniture.
