Just like having Norm there with you!,
By A Customer
This review is from: Mostly Shaker from the New Yankee Workshop (Paperback)
Perhaps I'm biased, I think Norm is to woodworking what Carl Sagan was to science. The projects are described in detail with Norm's hand on your shoulder. Complete and well detailed with out wasting time. I recommend this book and the rest of Norm's books highly.

very good;excellent instruction; furniture clean,
By A Customer
This review is from: Mostly Shaker from the New Yankee Workshop (Paperback)
I bought one of Norm Abram's book on outdoor furniture. I built the adirondack chairs, and then the garden bench. I learned alot, they turned out very well, and I subsequently bought all his other manuals. I wish he'd do some more. His plans and choices of projects are the best among the current title offered.

Shaker Furniture Making "Barney-Style",
By N. Martz - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Mostly Shaker from the New Yankee Workshop (Paperback)
This book is fantastic. Detailed pictures, lists of required tools and woods, and step-by-step instructions help you create great-looking Shaker furniture. I used this book to create a Shaker blanket chest, which was my second "large" woodworking project. The quality of results surpassed my expectations. This book is a must for the beginning woodworker who wants to produce quality items while at the same time learning or re-learning basic techniques.
