Ranging from a simple serving platter to a beautiful bird box there is a project to suit every level of expertise and every carefully saved piece of timber that has been squirrelled away. The ‘Basics’ section covers all the tools, materials and techniques, including making and using jigs, required to tackle the projects. All 20 projects are explained, in a straightforward way, explaining the techniques involved with clear step-by-step photos. All projects also have a dimensioned drawing with colour fill in, plus for most, a 3D colour exploded perspective showing construction/how to put the project together. There is also a guide to the tools and materials you will need. Projects include: salad serving forks, serving platter, recipe book holder, meat tenderizer, spaghetti gauge, angle-poise lamp, desk tidy, letter rack, pen case/necklace box, floating shelves, marble game board, a wedge end box, a dovetailed sliding lid box, picture/mirror frame, ring box, collectors’ tray, Japanese work trestle, tool caddy, garden planter and bird box.
