The Woodwright's Companion

Underhill's second book features chapters on helves and handles, saws, the search for the whetstone quarry, crow chasers and turkey calls, hurdles, whimmy diddles, snaplines and marking gauges, candle stands, planes, window sashes, riven shingles, and pit sawing. The final chapter focuses on traditional woodworking techniques still used by the Colonial Williamsburg housewrights.
