Book description
“[A] readable feast that covers more than 180 different types and categories of tools commonly found in many workshops. The writing style is engaging and humorous, and gives common-sense advice interlaced with lessons the authors have learned…. The well-organized book includes clear and lush illustrations, plus personal stories. The table of contents, much like chemistry’s table of elements, could be called the periodical table of tools, an effective structure that makes looking up a specific tool fast and easy….A perfect and highly recommended reference book. It’s a remarkable refresher for those more experienced and handy with tools; newbies will likely find it to be an impressive introduction as well.”—Library Journal, starred review“Similar in format to a woodland field guide, each entry provides high-quality color photos by Nick Mann and concise, thoughtful, explanations of history, design, and function. Gray's attitude about tools is candid and frequently playful. . . . Although unquestionably authoritative, it does not take itself too seriously, and the author's droll humor will help even the most timid workshop novice get comfortable with tools."—Booklist jQuery(function() { jQuery( "#tabs" ).tabs(); });
