Aimé Ontario Fraser, a former Fine Woodworking editor, employs a friendly tone that will inspire you and give you confidence -- especially if you have little or no experience using tools. Each project teaches specific skills, which can be applied later on, and results in a piece of furniture that you will be proud to have made.
Among the projects you will learn to build are a rustic coffee table, two-shelf bookcases, and a funky outdoor easy chair. Throughout the book, Fraser explains in detail the key operations or techniques that are needed to build the project. Helpful photos and drawings guide you along the way.
