DESCRIPTION:
""An essential purchase for those woodworkers interested in classic furniture design."" --""Woodworking Magazine""
Fifteen Craftsman-style furniture projects taken from the sketches of Stickley, Limbert, and Onken.
C. Pool said Woodworker's Primer on Arts & Crafts. This is a nice presentation of fifteen projects in the Arts & Crafts style. Designed from pictures in old catalogs, the problems in construction are solved by Blair Howard as he guides you through each project. The first chapters deal with the designers, their furniture, construction techniques, finish techniques, and materials. The remaining chapters are devoted to the actual pieces. Accomplished woodworkers might find the detailed instructions exces. Great book Volare Book presents useful and attractive projects for not so advanced amature. There are other art & craft project books. However, they're difficult and for experienced woodworkers.. SHORT ON DETAILS This book has some good ideas and nice pictures but the plans are not as detailed as I thought they would be. If you are just looking to add to your book collection this would be an interesting filler.
