by Roy Underhill. Softbound, 182 pages, 8-1/2" x 11". Begining with the standing tree, each chapter of this guide explores one of nine trades of woodcraft: faller, countryman and cleaver, hewer, log-builder, sawyer, carpenter, joiner, turner and cabinetmaker. Each trade brings new tools and techniques; each trade uses a different character of material; but all are united in the grain of the wood and the enduring mastery of muscle and steel. Hundreds of detailed drawings illustrate the hand tools and processes for shaping and joining wood. A special section contains detailed plans for making your own foot powered lathes, workbenches, shaving horses, and taps and dies for wood screws. A toolbox filled with insight and technique as well as wisdom and confidence for the artisan in all of us.
