3.0 out of 5 stars a book for advanced amateurs, May 31, 2000
This review is from: Wdwk Techniques (Essentials of Woodworking) (Paperback)
Well written well illustrated, its a book for serius amateurs looking for a very accurate and detailed way to fit a drawer, install hinges, locks and several other tips useful for an advanced amateur or woodworker in small scale and/or fine work. It is not for industrial scale production. The chapter on veneering and inlay is just a copy from a good book published by fine woodworking:Veneering Marquetry and Inlay. Overall, it's a good book,that will give a several good ideas, however don't expect the ultimate guide in woodworking techniques.
