Book recommendation - improving fine woodworking skills
Hi all,
I'm fairly competent when it comes to basic, round-the-house type carpentry, but I'd like to improve my finer woodworking skills. I'd actually like to make a jewelry box as a gift. I'm not having much luck finding a good book to help me, though. All I can find are big thick general carpentry manuals, books on how to build decking and lots of "big" furniture making books. Can anyone recommend a title or two? Cheers, Jeremy |

You can look up titles and then usually they are obtainable from Amazon or Axminster Tools among others. Also, take a look at their web site for Fine Woodworking magazine. http://www.taunton.com/finewoodworking/ You can subscribe to the site and download articles from past issues. There are techniques as well as projects and again generally quite good quality stuff. -- ..andy |
