Amazing Jan 02, 2007
By James Kozlowski
This book is an incredible source of information and "how to". It has 90 chapters divided into four sections; Tools & Materials; Rough Carpentry; Exterior Finish; Interior Finish.
The scope of this book is incredible, and it is very informative and concise (it is a textbook). It covers the following areas
Wood & Lumber;Engineered Panels;Engineered Lumber Product; Fasteners;Hand Tools;Portable Power Tools;Stationary Power Tools; Blueprints & Building Codes;Building Layout;Concrete & Concrete Forms;Floor Framing; Wall Framing; Interior Rough Work; Scaffolds, Ladders, & Horses; Roof Framing; Stair Framing; Insulation & Ventilation; Cornice Construction; Roofing; Windows; Exterior Doors; Siding; Porches,Decks, & Fences; Drywall Construction; Wall Paneling & Wall Tile; Ceiling Finish; Interior Doors and Door Frames; Interior Trim; Stair Finish; Finish Floors; Cabinets & Countertops; Cabinet Doors and Drawers
Each of the aforementioned units is further divided into chapters giving the reader the ability to easily find and pinpoint the infomation that they need. The book has an 11 page glossary, many helpful pictures and photos and contains a total of 946 pages, with chapter tests and suggested essays which I find valuable for retaining info on procedures that I do not perform on a regular basis. A great, great book.

A wonderful book for learning carpentry Dec 11, 2008
By Bettergears
"thanks."
I picked this book up many years ago to learn the fundamentals of carpentry for some home repairs. Whether I do them myself or hire a pro I like to know what's going on and understand best practices. This book was outstanding. From the way timber is cut into lumber to how to make precisely angled cut for trestles this book is invaluable to me. You can quite literally buy this book and learn to frame a house, cut stair runners, deck the roof and install hardwood floors. It's an outstanding text.
