Solid projects with how to's for beginners. Most items were not my style, and it's an older book so some pieces are dated as well. I did have some take aways from the book. The only reason I marked the book down is many of the projects were different meaning you would need different supplies and tools for each one. So if you were doing a project a week, it would mean purchasing alot of supplies you might not have on hand, especially if you are a beginner
