There is a lot of potential confusion and expense in the stage between having a strong interest in woodworking and actually building a functional workshop. Woodworking for the Serious Beginner will get you from the former place to the latter in the straightest and most economical line. Authors Pamela Philpott-Jones and Paul L. McClure advise on which tools to purchase first, which tools not to purchase, how basic hand and power tools work, how to clean and maintain them, how to avoid injury, and how to build basic woodworking skills with well-diagrammed, detailed exercises. The beginning woodworking projects, explained in detail, fill practical needs such as a first basic workbench, shop horses, and table-saw accessories. Readers not only learn simple woodworking techniques, but also end up with a fully configured workshop.
