DESCRIPTION:
Joseph Gill Jr. said Excellent book and a must have. John White does a great job with nice illustrations. I recommend this to anyone with a woodworking machine. It's amazing how far off your tools are until you set them up correctly. You'll save time and money by making better cuts the first time when the tool is setup correctly. It's amazing we take the time to measure an angle for moulding and when we cut it and it doesn't fit you think you measured incorrectly when it could have been your tool off by one degree.. Excellent Book! Amazon Customer This book is superb for explaining how to maintain, tune-up and trouble-shoot the most common woodworking machines; i.e., jointer, table saw, planer, drill press, bandsaw, router table and miter saw. One important thing this book covers is how you can save money by making your own set-up jigs instead of buying expensive ones from a retailer. I definitely recommend this book for anyone who is a "do-it-yourself-er.". "Worth Every Penny!" according to Stuart Ablett. What can I say, the chapter on setting up your jointer is worth the price of the book by itself. The pictures and the diagrams are great, easy to understand, and the text is informative and easy to read. This book makes you a better woodworker, because your tools will be correctly set up, which also makes them more fun to use and much safer.I would recommend this book to you, even if you do not own the tool, but are looking at getting into woodworking, with this book you will be better able
Woodshop tools are a major investment -- so it makes sense to keep them in good running order. This book is a complete reference guide for anyone who owns tools and wants to learn how to assemble, tune, maintain and repair them.
