Your hands-on invitation to get building! This is the definitive introduction to creating beautiful, functional wooden projects, proving you don't need a massive budget or a professional workshop to be a skilled maker.
Build Stuff with Wood is the perfect resource for the beginner, the budget-conscious DIYer, and anyone looking to experience the satisfaction of creating with their hands.
This book empowers you to save money by crafting your own unique furniture, storage, and home goods instead of relying on expensive, mass-produced items.

Learn simple techniques for measuring, cutting, assembling, and finishing wood, making woodworking approachable whether you're working in a garage, a small apartment, or a vibrant community maker space.
Woodworking is a skill best shared! This book encourages you to utilize the creative energy and resources available in the rapidly growing maker space community. The projects--which include clever storage solutions, sturdy furniture pieces, rustic décor, and unique gifts--are ideal for collaborative efforts, fostering a sense of accomplishment and encouraging community creation.
Start your woodworking journey today. Get hands-on, save money, and build something awesome while connecting with your local creative community. You'll soon discover the joy of creating high-quality, personal pieces with just a few basic tools.
Key Features:- Beginner-Friendly Approach: This book is tailored for those with little to no experience in woodworking. It emphasizes starting with a few portable power tools, such as a cordless drill and jigsaw, allowing you to dive right into the craft without feeling overwhelmed.
- Skill Development: As you progress through the projects, you'll learn how to enhance your toolkit with essential tools like a small router and doweling jig. These additions unlock new techniques and joinery options, expanding your woodworking capabilities.
- Clear Instructions: Step-by-step guidance, accompanied by helpful illustrations, ensures that you can follow along easily and successfully complete each project, regardless of your skill level.
- Empowerment Through Craft: This book is not just about building items; it's about empowering you to discover the joy of woodworking, instilling creativity, and fostering a sense of accomplishment with each completed project.
