Title: Furniture Making
Description: A wide and exciting range of modern furniture can be made easily and cheaply, without any previous skill or knowledge, by following the methods described in this book. The author shows how one basic but strong system of construction, which does away with involved carpentry joints, can be adapted to tables, chairs, cabinets and practically all types of furniture. Having made the items in soft woods, by a simple and reliable process of veneering they are given the appearance of solid walnut, teak, mahogany or any other hardwood. Every stage in the construction and veneering is described in non-technical terms and illustrated with diagrams and photographs, six in colour. Throughout the book the reader is encouraged to consider design as well as construction, so that the items he produces are tailored to his requirements and have an individual style.
