Customer Rating:      Summary: A little dated... Comment: The project instructions were clear and easy; tells you exactly what you need to make project. And what sizes to have the wood cut. But the projects were a little dated and plain even though this wasn't published that long ago. All in the same wood color, very basic styles. I'll make the bookscases, but would like to have seen them with trim on the front and maybe some moulding on the top and painted in a nice color or black. I think this just needs an update to current styles. Kitchen Island quite boxy, etc.
Customer Rating:      Summary: Better than Ikea! Comment: This, along with three other books I have, give you everything you need to really furnish your house. I love this stuff. Can't wait to make that buffet, china hutch, and a handful of other things. I've always wanted to do this kind of thing, after watching my Dad do it for many years, and now I can.

"If you're looking for good ideas for projects that you and your family can live with for a long time, this is the right book."--Woodwork
If you can fasten two boards together with nails or screws, you can decorate your entire house with great-looking furniture you've constructed yourself! Made with minimal materials (readily available stock lumber and parts), these 20 inexpensive and basic projects cover a variety of tables, benches, stools, shelves, and bookcases--everything you could possibly need. Build a simple cupboard that fits cozily into a corner, an entertainment center to neatly hold your electronic goodies, a spacious desk where you can work comfortably, and a beautiful dining table where family and guests can partake of good food and company. A special section introduces the techniques you'll need, every project includes a precise cutting list and detailed diagrams, and there are ideas for stains, paints, and other embellishments so your furniture will fit your décor precisely.
