The Complete Guide to Joint-Making

Explains joint making for beginners. Easy explanations and pictures. Will need to add more router bits.

Another good reference book in my library for woodworking. I suck and Joint-making and this book has got me closer to quality woodworking than I was before. Patience is the key!

This can help one take their joint-making to another level! The images are helpful, and this is the sort of book you may want, one in the workshop and one inside (without sawdust) to read and plan.

A pretty good book for beginners starting on woodworking joints. Book is in color and has good step-by-step pictures to follow. My personal favorite is the Chinese Chair joint. Wish it had more joints and also a bit more in the way of pictures.

This is a fascinating book. It is fun just to study, or at least to consider how I will use the various joints. This book shows and tells how to improve the beauty of a project. There are things I knew little about...it is especially helpful to know which joints are strongest and how to properly strengthen them by making a few variations. It is very nice to have the binding the way it is so I can take it into the shop and not fear it being beat up by using it there. I wish I had purchased this book 30 years ago. My wife is amused to repeatedly find me sitting on the love seat looking at this book! I have shown her a few of the joints and she is impressed...even asked me if I needed a new tool to make the joints. (How many men have a wife like mine for 44 years? None!)

Done well!

It was not nearly as detailed as I hoped it would be. I'm sure it is better suited to more experienced wood workers.

Those interested in wood joinery won't find a better book than this one. Pictures and illustrations are very clear and concise, without all the preaching and lecturing practiced by most English authors, who come across as if they consider themselves to be only people who know anything about wood joinery and wood working.

As a novice I found this guide to be very descriptive and easy to read and follow I would definitely recommend to anyone particularly beginning either their career or hobby to have this in their library

I bought this halfheartedly on an amazon recommendation. It was cheap enough and I was about to be making a lot of joints in timber (windows). I intended to use open mortice and tenon joints, and have done them before, so expected little from the book, however it is a very nice well printed book and contains good clear explanations. It told me that a coping saw was handy for cutting out the bottom of the mortice. I had been drilling and chiseling out the mortice, so now I have ordered some new coping saw blades, and will be putting that into practice. It was worth it just for that, how much time will that save me!

Es un libro en el ya me superaban más tipos de uniones, la mayor parte son práctica

As described, nice book does what it says!
