The project instructions were clear and easy; tells you exactly what you need to make project. And what sizes to have the wood cut. But the projects were a little dated and plain even though this wasn’t published that long ago. All in the same wood color, very basic styles. I’ll make the bookscases, but would like to have seen them with trim on the front and maybe some moulding on the top and painted in a nice color or black. I think this just needs an update to current styles. Kitchen Island quite boxy, etc.

This, along with three other books I have, give you everything you need to really furnish your house. I love this stuff. Can’t wait to make that buffet, china hutch, and a handful of other things. I’ve always wanted to do this kind of thing, after watching my Dad do it for many years, and now I can.
