Author Biography
Fine Woodworking has been publishing the best woodworking information for small shop woodworkers since 1975.
ReviewsWhat's great about a book like this is that no matter how much you know, there's always something new to learn. It might be an entirely new way to tackle a task or a subtle refinement of a method you already use. Woodworking with Hand Tools is an excellent resource for anyone interested in learning or expanding hand tool woodworking skills. --Steve Branam "www.CloseGrain.com"
