But the articles in this book, reprinted from "Fine Woodworking" magazine, should help dispel any questions or fears you may have about chair building. Not only can you build them, you can make them better than the average commercially made models.

Woodworking Projects for Women: 16 Easy-to-Build Projects for the Home and Garden (Craftswoman Book series)
One of the fastest-growing groups of woodworkers—women—are addressed directly in this guide to woodworking projects for the home and garden. Practical advice accompanies step-by-step instructions for 19 projects, including many staples of woodworking, such as tool racks and book lamps, as well as unique objects, such as a child's easel and utensil rack. An overview of different kinds of wood and an introduction to the most important tools used in woodworking provide essential information for getting started. Progressively complex projects and finishing tips are provided to build skill, and full-size pull-out patterns that would cost more than $100 if purchased separately are included.
Price: $17.95
