Ron Goldman, editor, Woodworker West Magazine
A wealth of knowledge at your fingertips. Detailed and easy to follow. Perfect for the beginner or anyone wanting to step up their craftsmanship.

Library Journal
Another large collection of woodworking projects, this book offers a wide variety of simple to more sophisticated patterns. Patterns are clear, followed by instructions with photos that will appeal to beginners. Unfortunately, many photos overlap, leading to a crowded layout. In addition, some project instructions skip steps. For example, instructions for building a table with a tile top lack an explantion for installing the tiles. Some of the finished projects are very nice; others look unfinished and clunky. This is a decidedly mixed bag of projects. An optional purchase for larger collections.
