Shipping


Received on xmas day, and it contains all i need to know about woodworking!


Sadly, the first book sent to me by amazon was all beat up, and had to be returned.


Received yesterday and paged through it last night.

Competitiveness


As other reviewers have pointed out, this is a uk-oriented woodworking reference, so many of the terms are different from american ones.


Brits and americans do work with mostly the same tools and techniques but sometimes use different words.

    The projects themselves are pretty cool but following along leaves a bit to be desired with diagrams not showing measurments at appropriate times

    Just a bit more annotated diagrams in the project pages would go a long way rather than having to flip back and forth all the time to find length width height of tenons lap cuts doves etc

    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    I considered returning it since the topics were covered rather basically but decided to keep it because it is instructive in teaching me the alternate terminology for anglophone woodworking


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    I spent an hour just pouring over the information in this section

    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    I do wish i had bought the book instead of the ebook for this perticular type of book


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    It’s almost as crazy as spending hours of your time and tons of money to make your own furniture when you can buy mass manufactured furniture at big box stores for less
