100 Weekend Projects Anyone Can Do: Easy, practical projects using basic tools and standard materials (Family Handyman 100)

👍🏾

This book is for my nephew. It is going to make an excellent gift for him. He is so gifted in the woodworking/building department that he will truly appreciate this book.

There are some terrific and innovative ideas in this book; we've already implemented several. However, if you're a beginner (like me) there are no detailed instructions on equipment safety, how to accurately measure, assembly tips, finishing details, etc. There are drawings with some measurements as guidance, but no information as to how you would cut materials to get to those measurements. I suggest you look for this book at your local library, take it out, and see if you would like to purchase it for your permanent collection.

great projects to improve my skills

It’s ok just expected more useful projects

you get some wonderful ideas, and it tells you what you need to do to make them.

Used the directions to build a few things already. Most important, workbench for the garage.

This book is being used to encourage a teenager to use his hands and learn a useful home owner skill.
