A fifth-generation cabinetmaker and restorer shows how today''s woodworkers can create timeless pieces while exploiting modern techniques and equipment, as well as those used since the 18th century. This proven blend of past and present approaches to producing period furniture, including constructing dovetailed drawers and hand veneering, reaches its apex in five highly detailed projects, each exhaustively illustrated with plans, explanatory drawings, and color photographs.

Book Description
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. To many craftsmen and collectors, the 18th century was the golden age of American furniture design. In this collection of 37 articles from Fine Woodworking magazine, expert woodworkers explore the designs and techniques involved in making the furniture of this era. They share precise plans for favorite old desks, secretaries, and blockfronts, with technical explanations of how to reproduce such fine details as ball-and-claw feet and tapered reeds. There are also practical design discussions for those who wish to capture the flavor of that time in original designs of their own. 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 into individual volumes by subject. Each book in this series offers and in-depth look at a particular aspect of woodworking, from the perspective of skilled professional and dedicated amateur woodworkers.

Book Description
The Shakers produced many incredible furniture objects that we continue to venerate today. For the woodworker the fascination is often rooted in the essential simplicity of the work. Interest in Shaker design is as strong today as it was when the first edition of this book was published in 1977, possibly stronger. This ongoing interest is the direct result of the inherent beauty of Shaker design—beauty that stems not only from form, but from superb workmanship, a commitment to utility and a total understanding of material.
