'MORE SHOP DRAWINGS FOR CRAFTSMAN FURNITURE'

I've been collecting and building Arts & Crafts furniture for more than a decade now, and I've been waiting for this book (and its predecessor "Shop Drawings for Craftsman Furniture") for about that long. In fact, it's a wonder that no one has written these books until now.

Author Robert W. Lang essentially presents you with the keys to the castle: 30 shop drawings of some of the most well-designed

Craftsman furniture from this important artistic and cultural movement.You get measured drawings of the plan, profile and elevation (usually called a three-view in design circles) and at least a couple exploded 3D drawings (called isometrics). Plus there's a cut list. Intermediate woodworkers will be able to go straight to work. For the beginners, there's a section in the front of each book that explains

basic construction techniques. However, first-timers would do well to get a couple simpler projects under their belts first.

For more details on these books, visit the publisher's web site: cambiumbooks.com. You can order these books direct from the publisher by calling 800-238-7724. Each book costs $22.95 plus shipping.
