About this title

Synopsis

With a modest workspace, a few basic tools and techniques, and this commonsense guide, aspiring home woodworkers can set up a functional and productive workshop. The advice is practical and approachable, acknowledging that setting up shop is a gradual process of buying a tool, learning a skill, and then using that skill and tool. The four projects are organized by level of difficulty, progressing from a basic box and bookcase to a more challenging shop cabinet and even addressing the complex subject of joinery. Safety protocol, including all-important fire prevention, is emphasized throughout, ensuring that beginning craftspeople build consistent safety habits as they build their skills and shops.

About the Authors

Tom Hintz retired from his personal involvement in stock car racing to become a staff writer and webmaster for Stock Car Racing and Open Wheel Magazines and staff editor for Circle Track Magazine all the while enjoying his lifelong hobby - woodworking. Later he began SPEEDWORDS, a marketing firm offering web development, writing and photography services for the racing business community. Known for his straightforward style of writing, Tom created one of the top online websites for woodworkers, NewWoodworker.com, that draws more than 150,000 visitors each month. Tom says these woodworkers log onto NewWoodworker.com "because they know the most effective safety tool is a well-informed brain." Tom Hintz lives in Concord, North Carolina.
