This book is very disappointing and highly overrated. Yes, it is very good at showing details of a cabinet’s anatomy, but does little to explain the construction process. I expected some dimensioned projects in the book, but there are none. I expected details and pictorials on how to use tools to achieve various joints and construction techniques, but there are none. If you are looking for a book that merely shows you one exploded view of a cabinet after another, then this book is for you.

This book is very informative on building furniture with different ideas ranging from tables to desks and cabinets. The author does not go into detail on how to actually build any of the above items but more along the lines of basic assembly and different joinery. Lots of exploded pictures showing the assemblies but without any details on dimensions or how to cut any of the actual joints. Great idea book.

The illustrations in this book are very good. However, for those who are experienced woodworkers. this might not be what you would want for new information in cabinet making. Some parts are somewhat outdated with the new tools and fasteners that are available today.
It was interesting reading and made a good donation to the local highschool shop class.

This book was recommended by a friend. I barrowed his copy and was impressed with the amount of information containded with in the pages. This is a must have source. If you are new to woodworking or are starting to design your own projects this book will quickly become your GO TO BOOK. Great book.

Have you ever considered adding more videos to your blog posts to keep the readers more entertained? I mean I just read through the entire article of yours and it was quite good but since I’m more of a visual learner
