A wood router is a very versatile power tool for applying basic or complex edge profiles on a piece of stock (e.g., board). However, a router can do a lot more than that. With some practice, the router can be used to perform a wide variety of woodworking tasks that might otherwise be done by hand.

Ratings and reviews

I can’t imagine the challenge of producing a big “overview of woodworking” tome in the year 2020. It’s almost as crazy as spending hours of your time and tons of money to make your own furniture when you can buy mass manufactured furniture at big box stores for less. Who would buy such an old fashioned book when you can find anything you want on the internet? With videos? I wondered that as I flipped through this book that my well-meaning family gave me, an avid beginner hobbyist, as a gift. While I wouldn’t have bought this on my own, I am nevertheless enjoying it enough to write this review. And I will say this type of book does deserve its place alongside the endless information and content steam of the internet. As a beginner hobbyist woodworker, YouTube is my primary instructor but this book is useful for just flipping through the pages and reading about tools and joints in a relaxed way, with plenty of high quality photos, when I don’t want to look at an electronic device.

Aside from my mom’s help, this book has been very helpful in terms of the information i need to double check on. I need not open my phone to search it up because this book has answered my questions so far. I have been trying to build some projects like a mini bookshelf since we have some wood at home from the disassembled double deck beds and things i needed to know was in this book.

Learn how to make a simple shelf or a dining room table for your home. The author introduces hand too that are needed Nd includes pictures of each tool and the use of each one which I find very handy to have. There are handy tips for woodworking such as using painters tape on the cutting line when cutting plywood to prevent chipping. More tips included on choosing the proper wood for a project and the grade. A very handy book with useful projects to make.
