Book Reviews of Illustrated Cabinetmaking: How to Design and Construct Furniture That Works

Book Review: very pleased
Summary: 5 Stars

This book is very informative on building furniture with different ideas ranging from tables to desks and cabinets. The author does not go into detail on how to actually build any of the above items but more along the lines of basic assembly and different joinery. Lots of exploded pictures showing the assemblies but without any details on dimensions or how to cut any of the actual joints. Great idea book.

Featuring each piece in highly-detailed, exploded drawings and applying time-honored dimension and ergonomic standards, this comprehensive visual sourcebook takes the guesswork out of furniture joinery, assembly, dimension, and style.
