The first book listed below seems a good place to start. The others
lean more to weekend-sized projects. Get the title and/or ISBN and
check your local library - my county library system has a broad (but
not always deep) selection of woodworking books - table saws, routers,
scroll saws, etc.

wood, so probably all small projects

I teach woodshop to students from 18-80 years of age. I was wondering
if anyone knew of any good books that have small simple projects in
them for beginners. I am looking for new ideas and something that
isn't too hard for people new to woodworking. thanks
