Roy Underhill is America's best-known master of traditional
woodcraft. Creator of the popular PBS series "The Woodwright's
Shop," Roy has inspired millions--from professional craftsman to
armchair woodworker--with his talent, knowledge, and enthusiasm.
Roy returns here with his third book. "The Woodwright's Workbook"
features step-by-step instructions for a selection of projects from
his television series. All projects are illustrated with
photographs and measured drawings. Included here are plans for tool
chests, workbenches, lathes, and historical reproductions of items
for the home: a six-board chest, rustic chairs with cattail seats,
a churn for the kitchen, and the Rittenhouse hygrometer. Roy also
explores building barns, forges, boats, and even colonial
fortresses.
A wonderful feature of this book is Roy's own translation of the
humorous fifteenth-century poem "The Debate of the Carpenter's
Tools." He also provides a fascinating and useful 'field guide' to
American tool marks that shows how to identify the specific tool
used by the marks it left. Whether Roy is an old friend or a new
acquaintance, let him be your guide to the world of traditional
woodworking.
