Popular Woodworking's Arts & Crafts Furniture Projects: 25 Designs for Every Room in Your Home

by Popular Woodworking Editors

Timeless Style and Simplicity Simple and beautiful, Arts & Crafts furniture designs offer an excellent learning medium for furniture building. The Arts & Crafts style allows the craftsman to build a quality piece of furniture in a reasonable amount of time while providing a very successful and satisfying experience. This book offers a collection of twenty-five Arts & Crafts furniture projects for every room in your home. Some of the projects are accurate reproductions of the original furniture pieces, while others are loving adaptations of the style. In addition to the projects in the book, we've included a Bonus CD-ROM* with ten furniture projects and ten technique articles to provide even more information on construction and finishing. This book represents a collection of projects that the Popular Woodworking staff considers to be some of the most visually appealing pieces of furniture ever created. * PLEASE NOTE : The CD is NOT included with the ebook version of this title.

went through this book for like the 4th time

I am planning on building additional projects from this book. Already built magazine stand and end tables.

Strongly recommended for anyone interested in craftsman style furniture

Seriously beautiful designs, if you like A&C, with complete schedules and instructions. The instructions include a lot of alternative techniques for work -- multiple ways to cut mortises and tenons, including some great stuff on climb-cutting tenons to reduce tear-out.
