These unique "how-to books" provide comprehensive treatment of materials, tools, and techniques. They are the ideal reference for creating beautiful and lasting projects. Each book is divided into two sections. The first section discusses the history of the craft and the essential tools for creating and building the projects. The second section consists of dozens of beginner and advanced projects with fully illustrated designs and plans. The hobbyist will acquire a working knowledge of materials, a higher level of control over work and tools, and an understanding of basic design principles. Woodworking & Cabinetry provides an introduction to woodworking, woodcarving and woodturning, as well as the use of varnishes and lacquers. Designs and plans for over 80 projects are also included.
