George Buchanan shows you how to create 15 pieces of country furniture that include a trinket box, a sleigh bed, a corner cupboard, a child's chair and a trestle table. Basic woodwork tools and skills are all you need as the step-by-step instructions and illustrations help you through all the making stages from preparation of timber to marking out, from cutting joints to assembly. The techniques are made easier with problem-solving sections and helpful hints and tips. Each project highlights key subjects such as finishing, ebonising, panelling or dovetailing. Fully dimensioned plans and cutting lists complete this comprehensive and inspirational guide.
