Woodworking with Mind, Body, and Senses

What's the secret to producing beautiful furniture that you and your family will treasure for generations? It starts with the fundamentals--those essential, yet often overlooked principles upon which all of your skills should be based.

  • How proper body position and mechanics improve your ability to cut precise joins, as well as add efficiency and safety.
  • Just what it means to cut a line.
  • How the wood works, so you can avoid such problems as tear out, splitting and warping--whether you use hand tools, machinery or both.
  • How woodworking tools actually cut and work, so you learn to use them more easily, effectively and accurately.
