5.0 out of 5 stars
Fun and nutritious!,
By A Customer
This review is from: Working at Woodworking: How to Organize Your Shop and Your Business (Paperback)
This books is both useful and fun, but in an unusual way: It combines solid business planning information with a lot of information on how to set up your shop. I have read a number of woodworking/business books, and they are dull, not enough jigs and tool talk. Here you get both in an integrated way that makes each strand more useful: All the technology has a purpose. Really a unique way of packaging a woodworking book. Of course the ultimate lesson is that you should drop all that woodworking nonsense and like Mr. Tolpin become a nationally recognized writer of coffee table books. They're good too, but I miss him. Oh, by the way, the focus is a two car garage sized cabinet shop.

Do you yearn to be a woodworker,
By A Customer
This review is from: Working at Woodworking: How to Organize Your Shop and Your Business (Paperback)
This book is an absolute must for anybody who wants to be a cabinetmaker or own a small shop. Of course you could work 20 years and get this information first hand, the hard way. Mr Tolpin --Hat's off--- Great job, Thank you very, very much
5.0 out of 5 stars

This review is from: Working at Woodworking: How to Organize Your Shop and Your Business (Paperback)
I bought the book mostly cause I'm building furniture and I was looking for more knowledge on making it a business. The author writes about the subject well having been doing this long enough. It's a good reference for anyone that's either thinking about getting into the cabinet business or any other woodworking business. The other good aspect of this book is that anyone looking to build cabinets will find a wealth of info on how to do it quickly.
