Woodworking has always been fun, even during the twenty-
It was always a learning experience, and I spent lots of time developing methods to make work simplier and I still use those method in my home shop long after retiring from woodworking.
I also enjoy sharing these methods by writing about my work and now I write about how I build projects in my small home shop using consumer brand tools instead of the trade tools I sold as part of my commercial shop.
If you own consumer level tools, you may be hesitant to try building cabinets and furniture, but my book Woodworking Simplified shows you how to build attractive and functional wood projects for your home or office using consumer tools.
I hope this is the first of a series of Woodworking Simplified books that include complete instructions, materials lists, drawings, and even exploded views for six projects including desks, cabinets, bookcases, tables, etc. These are same methods that helped me deliver quality while still making a profit. Now you can use them to jump right in building wood projects for family and friends.
