The books in this section are usually hardcover and in decent condition, though we'll sometimes offer hard-to-find books in lesser condition at a reduced price. Though we often put images of the book with their original dust jackets, the copies here won't always (or even often) have them. If that is important to you, please call ahead or say so in the order comments!
From the Introduction:
This is a book for beginners. Here is a chance for you to learn to work with wood, and at the same time produce interesting and useful objects.
You will learn about tools and how they are used; then how to apply your knowledge to create things with your own hands. You will enjoy your work, for woodworking is fun for everyone. You may find the whole family becoming interested; Mother and Dad will often work right along with you. . . .
The simple projects described in this book can easily be made at home. You don't need a shop; any handy table top makes a fine workbench. Follow the easy directions and drawings, and you will soon be making things of which you can be proud. Even though you may never hav done it before, you can work with wood –and have fun.
