Book Reviews of Beds

Book Review: Great Book, not too hard and not too easy
Summary: 5 Stars

The whole series of these book's (desks, bookcase, tables, beds) is a must for all woodworkers.

I built the Pencil Post Bed out of this book and will be working on another of the bed projects soon. I like the paperback style easy to read and comfortable to work with. The is a good mix of projects in these books some high end and some fairly basic, good detail on techniques and alternative constructive methods. Pictures are for the most part good. Only drawback in some places I'd like to see a bit more explanation in some places.

Summary of Beds

A bed is one of the most significant pieces of furniture in most homes, ranking with the dining room table as a major purchase or project. Beds: Step-by-Step begins with a discussion of bed-making basics, including building bed components, sizing, foundations, and hardware.

Each project chapter contains cutting lists, an exploded drawing, and a studio shot of the finished project. Also included are finishing tips and techniques and assembly instructions.

These projects, all designed by the author, include a small first bed, a Shaker-style bed, a Craftsman-style bed, a pencil post bed, a platform bed, the Windsor bed, the City bed, a sleigh bed, and a bunk bed. The skills required range from simple joinery techniques to challenging bending methods, all carefully explained in step-by-step instructions.
