This set is a broad general reference for shop practices and proven know-how. All of the techniques and processes you need to craft beautiful things from wood are compiled into three comprehensive volumes: Finishing, Sharpening, and Using Woodworking Tools.

Written by professionals, these books are organized to give you accurate information quickly. A typical book section, for example, includes an overview of the techniques; cross-references to related processes in the book; step-by-step essays with photos, drawings and instructions; tips showing shortcuts and smart ways to work; and even safety warnings specific to the process. Beginners will find a full library of techniques from which to learn woodworking. And veterans will find a source for inspiration, complete with unusual and seldom-used techniques. In short, each book is a thorough and easy-to-use reference.
