Furniture DIY. 35 Master Classes You Can Do Over the Weekend

It is very difficult to find furniture that meets your individual requirements: unsuitable sizes, insufficient storage compartments, or, on the contrary, an excess of details. But you can make furniture yourself! This book will help you create a wardrobe, bedside table, or dresser that is just right for you! In this detailed guide for the modern carpenter, you will find 35 master classes on creating basic furniture items: from a shoe rack to a vanity cabinet with several compartments. The projects are economical and simple, without complicated joints and techniques. Step-by-step instructions, photographs, and diagrams will help you master carpentry, understand the details better, and find new ideas for future projects. All the essentials: - an overview of the main types of hand and power tools, as well as other necessary equipment for the work, with instructions for their use; - basic wood working techniques: from measuring and marking the board to making connecting parts and the final finishing of the product; - furniture projects for any room — bedroom, kitchen, living room, office, hallway, bathroom, and even for the outdoors; - creating furniture and interior items of any complexity: from a simple shelf for mugs and a birdhouse to a single-door wardrobe and a dresser with pull-out drawers. “The wonderful craft of woodworking should be economically and technically accessible to everyone. This book has everything for every woodworker, regardless of their skill level.” — Steve Butler, host of the PBS show “Garage with Steve Butler”
