While Furniture Design & Construction is a project book for woodworkers, it goes beyond traditional woodworking manuals to teach design concepts through carefully selected, hands-on pieces. This book is for the woodworker who is not content merely to build from preset plans; instead, it offers projects that will show how the designs originate and take shape, giving the maker the freedom to build anything, with or without plans. The book presents a dozen different pieces of furniture, each illustrated with detailed line drawings. Every project exemplifies a different lesson in design—making the book a self-teaching course in woodworking and furniture design for amateurs and experienced woodworkers alike.
This book is a comprehensive pictorial index of those woodworking handtools common in the Western civilization from eighteenth century to the present. Not only a fascinating record of trades and skills from cabinetmakers to wheelwrights in an age before powertools became the norm, The Encyclopedia of Woodworking Handtools Instruments & Devices also emerges as a remarkable tribute to man s technological ingenuity. More than 600 tools are listed and described here, both alphabetically and fully cross-referenced for easy access, from the adze, awl, bevel, and bit to the wrest, yardstick, and zig-zag rule, complete with explicit definitions, many interesting etymologies, and much fascinating historical information. This classic reference contains more then 570 detailed line-drawings, accompanied by an expert s authoritative text. Whether uses a handy guide book to identify a tool and its use, or read simply for enjoyment, this book stands along in capturing for all time the sophisticated beauty and inventiveness of woodworking handtools."
