Based on a two-week course in woodworking fundamentals offered at the Center for Furniture Craftsmanship in Camden, Maine, this book takes a traditional approach to teaching, with the idea that learning basic skills is essential to craftsmanship. In the process, the book covers all the bases—from working with hand tools to cutting dovetails. Includes two complete projects: a bench and a small cabinet.

In this revision of Working with Wood: The Basics of Craftsmanship (1993), the longtime instructor of a basic woodworking class introduces wood's properties and techniques (hand and power) for projects which utilize these skills. Korn still regards hands-on experience as the best teacher. Annotation ©2004 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR
