5.0 out of 5 stars An excellent book of reference for all levels of experience., 25 Mar 2001

By A Customer

This review is from: Encyclopedia of Furniture Making (Paperback)

I am a professional cabinet maker and this would be my first book of reference. I have found it useful both as a trainee and as a more experienced craftsman. Its best attribute is its self explanatory nature so it is possible to learn techniques from it alone. It covers practically every aspect of the craft that you will ever need.

4.0 out of 5 stars Identical to The Technique to Furniture Making, 28 Jan 2005

By	"robin5793" - See all my reviews

This review is from: Encyclopedia of Furniture Making (Paperback)

A great book but it is word for word/ page for page identical to The Technique to Furniture Making. Don't buy both books even though Amazon says that most people who bought this book bought the other one as well.

4.0 out of 5 stars Great furniture reference book, 12 Jul 1999

By A Customer

This review is from: Encyclopedia of Furniture Making (Paperback)

The best attributes about this book are the diagrams/pictures of furniture making techniques. With +/- 514 pages of reference information, you certinally get your $ worth. Each page is packed with diagrams,how to information, and explanations. The entire book is packed with just about every aspect of furniture making. However, while covering such a broad spectrum, it is unavoidable that this book will gloss over subject matter. This is a great furniture reference book.

5.0 out of 5 stars Don't let the age of this book put you off!
Yes, the photographs (which are black and white and rather muddy) betray the publication date of the book, 1987.

But the content is timeless. Read more
