 An excellent book for the beginning cabinet maker! Oct 30, 1998
I found Mr. Cary's book to be a worthwhile investment in time and money! He is very detailed oriented, without being redundant or boring, when describing each phase of building your cabinet. He provides you with step-by-step prodecures that are clear and easy to follow! He also provides helpful hints on how to avoid mistakes and what can be done when mistakes are made. This book is a must have for those who have two left thumbs like me!

A great book in the fundamentals of cabinet building. Jan 26, 1998
By Keith Mealy
From layout of kitchen through installation, Jere Cary takes you thru each step of construction. Especially helpful are standard dimensions, options, and what to do if you goof. This book is helpful if you are building any casework, whether it has shelves, doors, or drawers. Don't let the title lead you to think it's only for kitchen cabinets.

 Not for the novice! Jun 15, 2002
By Connie R
Poorly illistrated an much too much text for a relatively simple project. Not worth it's price. If you are a novice interested in basic cabinet building, I highly recommend "Better Homes and Gardens Step-By-Step Cabinets & Shelves". It covers everything from tools to lumber to construction and installation, including countertops and drawer construction. It's a MUCH better book than this one! Don't waste you money on this book!

Outdated Info! Jul 24, 2002
For a book written in 1983 I believe the information is a little outdated for todays woodworker. No mention of Euro cabinets, which is the majority of what is built now days. The book has some good information but all in all needs to be updated.

A good text for the intermediate woodworker Sep 06, 2001
By Douglyss Giuliana
This solid text describes a plan of attack for building your own kitchen cabinets. Cary describes some types of wood, planning the space, constructing some basic pieces, and finishing. However, it is not a complete reference for the beginner. Wood selection, an important step in cabinet making, gets only cursory coverage and types and uses of woods are not covered in detail. In addition, while joinery is covered well, actual methods of attaching (nail, screw, glue) were not described in enough detail for the novice. Definitely a good text if you are experienced in woodworking and want to tackle a larger project.
