The history of woodworking
spans cultures and millennia, and each year more and more people take up this
exciting and challenging craft. Illustrated with hundreds of full-color
photographs, Basic Woodworking helps beginners learn the fundamentals of
working with wood and avoid frustration and injury in the process. Following a
complete introduction to both hand tools and woodworking machines, the book
guides readers step-by-step, from start to finish, through several simple
projects--including a cutting board, peg shelf, and step stool--and, along the
way, builds a foundation of knowledge by teaching the essential skills that
will serve them in future woodworking endeavors.
