Awesome DIY book, Dec 3 2011

This review is from: Black & Decker The Complete Outdoor Builder: From Arbors to Walkways: 150 DIY Projects (Paperback)
This is an awesome do it yourself book for landscaping and building decks, patios, walkways, walls, fences, and other outdoor projects like a firepit, archway, grilling station, etc. The only drawback is that the book shows just one or maybe two options on how to do the projects, and it is an overview guide of how to do the project. There's not an extremely detailed layout so you'll need some handyman skills already, but this book gives great guidance and ideas, and tells you what you'll need to do the job.

I received this book promptly and was delighted to see the colorful pictures on each page with step-by-step instructions on how to complete the project. This book offered many more ideas on projects I didn't even know I was interested in doing. Great Book for the excellent price!

I bought this book for my son as a birthday gift. He is newly married and is starting projects around his home. It is a brilliant book - he loved it, it will give him advice on projects for years to come. There are good projects in the book that most people will want to do. It will be a book used time and time again. As you know if you get it wrong at the very start of a project no matter what you do it will still not turn out well. This book gives you the information to successfully complete projects. Would recommend the book to anyone tackling first time projects or can't seem to get their projects looking professional.
