I designed this book to have a fun, contemporary style, and clear step-by-step instructions. The challenge was to balance density of information—including sidebars—with some "breathing room." White space gives the reader a pause.
This is an entry-level book; a confidence builder. Most people—even those who’ve never tackled a woodworking project before—can build the furniture. You can buy all the materials at your local home center or lumberyard and most you can haul home in the backseat of your car. All you need are a few tools, a few hours, and the corner of your garage or basement for most projects. —Spike Carlsen
