Overview

Back by popular demand, these classic woodworking titles from Fine Woodworking magazine are filled with first-rate information that is as timeless now as it was when first published. In woodworking there is a bewildering variety of machinery, but precious little advice about machines for the amateur craftsman. Here at last is a book that tackles the tough questions about woodworking machines. Which machines do you really need and which are liable only to gather dust in your shop? How can you get the most out of a router? What's the right way to adjust a jointer or thickness planer? How can you assess an old cast-iron bandsaw and tell whether it's worth rescuing? What about those new Japanese resaws and fixed-knife surfacers? In 40 articles from Fine Woodworking magazine, expert craftsmen discuss all aspects of woodworking with machines, using explanations you can understand and apply in your shop. Since it began publication in 1975, Fine Woodworking has written about practically every aspect of the craft. The ""Fine Woodworking on..."" series organizes many of the articles from the magazine's first ten years into individual volumes by subject. Each book in this series offers an in-depth look at a particular aspect of woodworking, from the perspective of skilled professional and dedicated amateur woodworkers.
