## Customer Reviews

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great Projects - Woodworking Basic Knowledge Required
*by  on Reviewed in the United Kingdom 26 June 2012*

I love this book for the projects, which is exactly what it said it would be. However, as the book was suggested for ALL levels from beginners to more advanced, I had anticipated suggestions for tools along the way. My mistake since the summary of the book never promised that this information was included, and I had made that assumption.Regardless of my own errors, I think that the book is superb and will certainly enjoy using it. I purchased it specifically for some of the items on the cover, and then some more that I hadn't expected. I will, however, be looking for another book though to help me with tool selection, and lessons regarding the joints and cutting skills I will need to make them.I can see myself returning to this book over and over again for existing projects and the way it describes building on your designs to modify and make something more unique of your own. I'd definitely buy it as a gift for others and be sure of it being gratefully received too.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Fantastic Read
*by  on Reviewed in the United Kingdom 1 February 2024*

Other than the delivery been left outside in the rain and having the book saturated with rain it’s the best buy yet. Ever page you turn over on this book gives more and more knowledge. I will be looking for more books similar to this one. Full of information on how to construct carpentry projects. All the design work done for you and to scale. I purchased this book secondhand but, it’s well worth the full price if others are not for sale. For a beginner it’s just the job you can not go wrong with this book you name it you will find a project to construct in it.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Lots of ideas.
*by  on Reviewed in the United Kingdom 18 October 2020*

Lots of ideas for small projects. Exactly what you'd expect. Many require a fret or scroll saw but can be adapted if you don't have these. Some need a lathe. It's American so draws on American designs and is also all in Imperial measurements. Just remember there are 25.4mm to the inch! In my opinion a good buy, the candle holder on page 90 is simple and very effective. It's also useful to give it to your spouse to have a look through and when they say 'Oh I'd love that!' it gives you a perfect excuse to buy the lathe/scroll-saw/band-saw/pillar-drill the project needs.
