Studies have shown that beginners need two things to continue their interest in woodworking: early success and increasing

    Excellent projects and good basic skills. Each skill is taught as needed–when you need a router table for one of the projects, he shows you how to build a router table. Also so good insights to less beginnery items–sharpening and using a scraper, for example.

    My one star off is for the fact that measurements shown in the diagram for the first project (desk organizer) do not match the measurements given in the text! Very disconcerting for the beginner this book is aimed at.

    Nice Projects; Some Omitted/Incorrect Details, July 30, 2009

    This review is from: Furniture You Can Build: Projects That Hone Your Skills (Getting Started in Woodworking) (Paperback)

    I bought this book for the quartersawn white oak blanket chest, since that is what my daughter asked for. The piece is beautiful. The milling instructions are ambiguous and confusing. On at least two occasions, the book text tells me to place the parts one way for machining grooves, and in the accompanying photo it says to turn them the opposite way. There’s a lot to figure out in this project, and I had to remake the legs because the biscuit slots turned out to be in the wrong place — about 20 hours of wasted effort. I am now struggling to make sense of the frame and panel assemblies.

    I will get it done correctly, but the book could have been more helpful.

    The book was helpful. I build a bed and this book gave me some pointers. I’m sure it will be more useful in the future. I just had a different design style than what was in the book.
