5.0 out of 5 stars Basic Carpentry
This book is exactly what is claims to be - Basic Carpentry.Mostly geared for the novice, it will clearly explain many basic improvement and repair tasks around the house and workshop. It does NOT go into more advanced techniques, just gives you the basics.It's a must have, and an excellent starting place FOR THE UNINITIATED. Covering what tools to start with as well as what tools you will one day want to have - what they're used for and better still what to look for when you buy them (what do you look for in a router? They suggest no less than 1 hp...) Don't waste money on features you don't need - they give you an idea of what's important and what's not.Other books in the series work well together with little duplicate info - giving the basic homeowner/apartment dweller the basic knowledge to improve their surroundings.If you already have a firm grasp on this subject - stay away, a more advanced book will be more usefull!Definatly makes a great gift for a first time homeowner (and we all know one of those)!
5.0 out of 5 stars Very valuable book
Utterly basic, quick read. This has answered most of my questions about my amateur carpentry projects and has taught me so much. For example, I didn't know nails were tapered unevenly for a reason. I have good sense, and knew much of what was in the book from experience and common sense, but I am so much better for having this book. I can't imagine anyone except the most seasoned master carpenter would not learn something that made the book worth the time and money to read.It is well indexed, too, so you don't really have to read the whole book if you have a specific question.There are areas where I would like more detail, but that is not what this book is about. There are many fine points, but anything that is not in the book is stuff that I need to see how to do, stuff that would not work for me just in print.The book has been far more valuable that what I paid for it.
5.0 out of 5 stars Just what I was looking for
Simple language for a beginner, easy projects, explanation of tools and how to use them. This book is just what I wanted to help me get started doing basic things around the house.

Must say this book is very detailed in his information. More advanced books at a higher cost is a good idea but you would enjoy this book also with its information.

見やすく 解り易い
オールカラーで質もいい用紙に解り易く 見易いフォントに シニカルなイラストでツールや その扱い方等が丁寧に載っています。絵から言葉も拾い易いので、読破向きでない方にもお勧めです。大きなプロジェクトとして、壁をこしらえて Dry wall で壁を作る方法が載っていますが、シリーズとしてとらえるとカラーである事と、画がある事と 見分け易い事が重点とするなら初めの一歩には いいスタートだと思います。
