How To pages
You can download a number of documents I have written describing various aspects of how to build fine furniture and how to use a variety of tools I have found to be best of breed. I have been paid by the sponsors to write some of these, others I wrote as a way of sharing what I have learned over a lifetime of designing and hand crafting fine furniture.
These are full color multi-page booklets of up to 100 pages in length in Adobe Portable Document format (.pdf files) so you can download them for free to read at your leisure. I compressed the files so they will download faster at the expense of image quality. Use the Contact form under Let's Talk to the right to send me emails with your comments and suggestions for improvement. Enjoy!
