Affordable, attractive, and timeless furniture for the home is made possible with this project guide that includes 32 easy-to-build classic country pieces, from small candle boxes and footstools, to a large Amish wardrobe and corner cupboard. With basic woodworking skills, a modest workshop, and a trip to the local lumberyard, builders are ready to use the detailed plans, exploded diagrams, and complete cut and dimension lists to reproduce beautiful designs that have endured for hundreds of years and are still wildly popular. Invaluable instructional features are also presented to drill down common woodworking techniques, such as routing dovetails or cutting a mortise and tenon joint, and simplify them in a sequence of photographed steps. "For woodworkers who appreciate the clear instruction for which the author, a master furniture maker, is known." —Woodshop News Bill Hylton is the author of Router Magic and Woodworking with the Router, and is a frequent contributor to woodworking magazines, including Woodworker's Journal. He lives in Quarryville, Pennsylvania. Imprint: Fox Chapel Publishing Distributor: Independent Pub Group Publication Date: 05-01-2008 Pages: 324 Measurements: 11.00in X 8.50in X 1.85lb
