Publishers Description: It's the complete reference handbook on wood! From the most popular natural and man-made woods used in furniture making to repairs and restoration, this manual covers it all. Photos of lumbers, both hard and soft, show color and grain; for each, an accompanying caption tells what tasks it's best suited for, how it cuts, and its durability. Every tool is laid out, with a discussion of how and when to use it: gauges, shaping tools, clamps and clamps, drills, and more. Make joints and do turning; add a high-quality finish; and do six step-by-step projects that range from a dining room table to a bedside cabinet. And, for the ultimate woodworking thrill, construct projects that you yourself have conceived and designed.
