Carpentry for beginners: How to use tools, basic joints, workshop practice, designs for things to make (A Drake home craftsman's book)

By Stephen Elias

No Customer Reviews

REPRINT. pp.200. B W illustrations. This book is intended for the home craftsman who wants to make all sorts of things in wood from a table lamp to a rabbit hutch. To the tradesman carpentry refers to the constructional woodwork of a house-the roof, flooring, and so on. To the man in the street, however, it generally means the making of almost every thing in wood; hence the general character of the designs we give. We give a range of comparatively simple designs for objects to make which we know from experience to be in everyday demand; small general items, pieces of furniture, and garden woodwork. These are followed by instructions on the use of tools, and the everyday processes involved in woodwork-making doors, hinging, fitting locks, and cutting joints. This description may be from another edition of this product.

Looks like a lot of fun!

By Thriftbooks.com User, May 22, 2009

Purchased this for my 9 year old Niece - she has an upcoming tonsil surgery and I know this will keep her entertained while she recovers. She loves horses and flipping through this book there is a ton of activities. I also like the fact it is a bit larger/over-sized book - can't get lost as easy as a small book! ;)
