I bought this book and Danny Proulx's Build Your Own Kitchen Cabinets (Popular Woodworking). Proulx's book focused on particleboard construction and mostly 32mm cabinets. I was very dissapointed as I was anxious to start building cabinets and...

Review from a shopper who 'Hated it'
From: Posted: Apr 23, 2005 Type: User Review Very short on details

This book is very vague. The chapter on cabinet design tells you to buy a CAD program. And the cabinet assembly chapter is four pages long. The writer assumes the user of the book knows all of the details. My question is if you know all of the...

Review from a shopper who 'Loved it'
From: Posted: Jan 21, 2008 Type: User Review New Fix-It-Yourself Manual

This was purchased as a gift for my son-in-law. As I told him, it is by far the best do-it-yourself home repair manual I have ever seen or used. It is clearly and logically laid out. Illustrations are in full color and large enough to easily...

I purchased this book as a Christmas gift for my son. I started to leaf through it prior to wraping it and I am glad I did. This book was published in 1977 and although there is a lot of information - much of it is outdated - how many people do...

This is a good reference for framing details, which I turn to frequently as we work on the design for our new home. That said, there are numerous gaps and while some might be excused as esoteric, like framing a swept roof at the eaves (though it...

The book focuses on very modern designs, which are frequently stark or very heavy on the glass and steel. There are some ideas for creating a "greener" house, but most of the examples ignore the most basic green principle of minimizing the square...
