A Handbook of Woodworking by Stephen Corbett
A guide for both the novice and the accomplished woodworking enthusiast, this book begins with an introduction to timber and outlines the differences between softwood and hardwood. A complete guide to the tools of the trade follows, detailing which tools to acquire first, how to use them and how to implement safety practices. With clear, step-by-step instructions that are easy to follow, this comprehensive course on woodworking has extensive sections on every aspect of the craft, such as making joints, carving and varnishing. Twenty well-crafted practical projects, like making a comer cabinet and a butcher's book, include plans and drawings that will specifically hone and develop your newly acquired skills.
