The book includes - guides to using foundational woodworking tools such as the pull saw, hand plane, and lathe (with overviews on foot-powered and modern lathes);

- eight illustrated step-by-step projects for coasters, candleholder, bowl, bud vases, chopping board, wooden utensils, hand broom, and handled brush; and
- discussions on design methods, sustainability, natural materials, and troubleshooting, plus a handy glossary.
