| Summary |
With a handful of essential joints, you can build just about anything! Whether you're creating a simple box or an 18th century highboy, the foundation for successful woodworking is a collection of essential joinery skills. Once learned, these techniques allow a woodworker to build just about anything. From the workshop of Marc Spagnuolo, creator of The Wood Whisperer Web site and host of its popular YouTube channel, Essential Joinery teaches the time-tested methods for creating woodworking's most fundamental joints. Rather than working solely by hand or machine, Spagnuolo teaches woodworkers how to choose the most sensible joinery method for the task at hand while providing some additional techniques and styles for each joint. With the expert instruction and easy-going style of Essential Joinery, beginners and pros alike can take their joinery skills -- and their woodworking satisfaction -- to the next level. |
