Synopsis
The Basics For Spending Wisely, Working Safely, & Having Fun In Your Shop"Don't spend a dime until you've read this book," warns author Tom Hintz, who knows just how tempting a trip through the power tool aisle can be. Instead, he guides new woodworkers on how to set up their workshops affordably, how to work safely and how to have fun at the same time. You may not be a master craftsman, but with over 300 photographs, easy-to-understand directions, sidebars, charts and tips, this common-sense approach to woodworking, will have you up and running like a regular pro!, With a modest workspace, a few basic tools and techniques, and this commonsense guide, aspiring home woodworkers can set up a functional and productive workshop. The advice is practical and approachable, acknowledging that setting up shop is a gradual process of buying a tool, learning a skill, and then using that skill and tool. The four projects are organized by level of difficulty, progressing from a basic box and bookcase to a more challenging shop cabinet and even addressing the complex subject of joinery. Safety protocol, including all-important fire prevention, is emphasized throughout, ensuring that beginning craftspeople build consistent safety habits as they build their skills and shops., If you've always wanted to try your hand at woodworking, what are you waiting for? You don't need a shop full of expensive equipment or the skills of a master craftsman. All you need is a little bit of space, an interest in building something with your hands, and the commonsense information found in The New Woodworker Handbook-a refreshing new guide for the newcomer.Written by Tom Hintz, a realistic and straight-talking woodworker with 30 years of experience who believes that woodworking should be fun and relaxing, this handy reference is neither overly simplistic nor too complex in its approach. In fact, the book is the culmination of thousands of comments, questions, and suggestions from the many new woodworkers who have visited the author's website (www.NewWoodworker.com) for help in getting started in this craft.With more than 300 photographs, easy-to follow directions, enlightening tips, and helpful charts and sidebars, this book makes learning about woodworking easier than ever., If you've always wanted to try your hand at woodworking, what are you waiting for?
