Now, in his seventh book, Roy shows how to engage the mysteries of the splitting wedge and the cutting edge to shape wood from forest to furniture.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eBeginning with the standing tree, each chapter of \u003ci\u003eThe Woodwright's Guide\u003c\/i\u003e explores one of nine trades of woodcraft: faller, countryman and cleaver, hewer, log-builder, sawyer, carpenter, joiner, turner, and cabinetmaker. Each trade brings new tools and techniques; each trade uses a different character of material; but all are united by the grain in the wood and the enduring mastery of muscle and steel.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eHundreds of detailed drawings by Eleanor Underhill (Roy's daughter) illustrate the hand tools and processes for shaping and joining wood. A special concluding section contains detailed plans for making your own foot-powered lathes, workbenches, shaving horses, and taps and dies for wooden screws.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eThe Woodwright's Guide\u003c\/i\u003e is informed by a lifetime of experience and study. A former master craftsman at Colonial Williamsburg, Roy has inspired millions to \"just say no to power tools\" through his continuing work as a historian, craftsman, activist, and teacher. In \u003ci\u003eThe Woodwright's Guide\u003c\/i\u003e, he takes readers on a personal journey through a legacy of off-the-grid, self-reliant craftsmanship. It's a toolbox filled with insight and technique as well as wisdom and confidence for the artisan in all of us. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 192\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.56 x 10.96 x 8.52 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eIllustrated:\u003c\/strong\u003e Yes\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e November 17, 2008\u003c\/div\u003e\n            ","brand":"BooksCloud","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44848473112678,"sku":"9780807859148","price":42.89,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0599\/7255\/0758\/files\/eWFxQmZLS20yWERrNndUd04zaFFPQT09.webp?v=1772755517","url":"https:\/\/infinitylightwa.com\/products\/the-woodwrights-guide-working-wood-with-wedge-and-edge-paperback","provider":"Infinity Light","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
