Offert en anglais seulement

As the title suggests, this book strips down joinery to emphasize the core principles that apply to any joinery project, regardless of complexity. The author takes you through every step in creating different types of joints, discussing the functions of each so you can choose the style of joinery best suited to any particular project. Using power tools for some tasks and hand tools for others, he starts with simple butt and rabbet joints before explaining more complex techniques such as cutting dadoes and grooves, mortises and tenons, half-laps, bridles and dovetails. This is a thorough guide with detailed color photography supported by clear instructions, including how to correct some common errors. A great resource to help improve your joinery skills, regardless of your level of woodworking experience. Softcover, 8" × 10", 213 pages, 2019.
