Hand-powered woodworking is quieter, safer, greener, and more compact than its mechanized cousin, and it also can be less expensive! It is the best way to learn what wood and tools can and cannot do, and it offers some perspective on the habits and pace of life that have largely displaced it.
This concise, indexed college course text offers a thorough grounding in the materials, design, methods, and tools of traditional woodworking. It is practical, built around five projects that are carefully explained and generously illustrated. Appendixes explain sharpening, setting up and using planes, building a tool set on a budget, and mixing non-toxic stains and finishes.
