Book Reviews of Trim Carpentry (Build Like A Pro)

Book Review: A Good Addition for the Hobbyist
Summary: 5 Stars

I've been slowly assembling a collection of wood working and trim books for about a year. After reading the reviews on this book I opted to buy it and don't regret it for a moment. The author's prose is very clear with some clever tips and tricks. One might not think that is very relevant; however, it would be almost impossible for only one book to contain all tips and tricks wood workers have formulated over the years. The pictures and diagrams are well laid out, clear, and get the energetic reader thinking about the possibilities for potential projects.

I would recommend this book as a "must have" for anyone interested in trim carpentry.

Summary of Trim Carpentry (Build Like A Pro)

Whether used to increase the value of a home or to transform a room with a period style, trim is in. This completely updated and revised edition of one of Taunton's most popular Build Like a Pro books will help serious do-it-yourselfers unlock the mysteries of how to get tight miters and work with out-of-square walls, floors, and ceilings. Tackling window and door casings, baseboards, crown molding, and wainscoting, DeKorne does not overwhelm readers with every conceivable way to complete a job; instead, he focuses on the professional methods and mechanics that have served him well throughout his successful career. Carefully balancing production and quality, Trim Carpentry will not only help people trim their house, it will help them become better carpenters.
