This is a useful book to dip into. We all have different ways of working and doing things and generally they get the job done. This is one joiner's way. The great thing about these "how to" books is that you can garner from them all the styles and techniques that take your fancy. I do seem to have a lot of this type of book on my bookshelves. Well - it's cheaper than taking a masterclass with every artisan.
