Book Reviews of Illustrated Cabinetmaking: How to Design and Construct Furniture That Works

Book Review: Great for designing furniture!
Summary: 5 Stars

I have to say this book was wonderful while I was designing a new piece of furniture for my home.

I had questions as to what the best way to create something would be. I found the different examples throughout the book to be very helpful.

Also, I would like to say I do not agree with people who want measurments in this book. I don't think this book is trying to be that type of book and overall it wouldn't help.

If you are looking for a book that really describes how things are built and goes into detail as to how they are built, this is for you. I think this will be one of my most used reference books for woodworking.
