Book Review: The Table Saw Book observations
Summary: 4 Stars
The Table Saw Book is an excellent book for experienced woodworkers as well as beginners. I was pleased that the author did not assume that the reader knew all of the buzz words and described the points clearly. It was written in a manner that was most interesting and a difficult book to put down.
It would have been helpful if the pictures relating to the articles could have been kept more near; sometimes they did get separated pretty far. On the other hand, the pictures and diagrams were very large and clear which was a welcome feature. Clearly, it was impossible to have it both ways, and I think he made the better choice.
I was also pleased that the author did not seem to favor one brand of table saw over another, but did point out the advantages and shortcomings of many. He even included tips on using the ShopSmith unit that so many of us small home shops have. The extensive information regarding saw blades and equipment care was most valuable as was the information regarding fine tuning table saws.
The book contained many tips, clear and complete diagrams, many safety precautions and reminders, and a large number of home-made accessories that one could build for themselves. This value in itself was worth many times over the small cost of the book. I will be keeping this book and using it often for a reference.
