You guys that want good books on woodworking really need to start
checking out used bookstores. Prices are very much lower than new
bookstores, and they have books that are lonnng out of print. Not sure,
but I think the most I've paid for any woodworking book is about $9,
lowest 50 cants. My personal woodworking library is larger than the
local library, and probably than the county library's too.

You're not buying the right books:

$510 for a catalog. I almost bid on this thing, but the price shot over
two hundred and I passed.
