Title: How to Design and Build a Home Workshop
Description: This little book is one of those mass produced, cheaply made trade paperbacks that sold in supermarkets or through the mail. You know the kind...small format, acid pulp paper that turns brown, and poorly done b/w photos and line drawings. Even so, it's packed with information for the novice and beginning woodworker who wants to put his/her dream shop together. The reader is walked through the basics, from choosing a shop location, to planning and building the shop, to putting together such necessities as workbenches. Many of the short chapters appear to have been taken directly from the pages of old Popular Science magazines. The best feature is the suggested offerings for various shop layouts. The ideas are not detailed, but helpful in forming general plans.
