Projects seem nice, but text needs more work,
By Ken (Ontario, Canada) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Great 2x4 Accessories for Your Home: Making Candlesticks, Coatracks, Mirrors, Footstools, and More (Paperback)
I've already built two of the projects from this book. However, I had problems with both. The authors seem to have stock in the woodfiller companies as they are consistently advising you to put screw holes through visible faces. There were parts missing in the list of materials from one project and the diagrams didn't match the finished product. Some of the ideas seem a little tacky, like the Grandmother Clock. Overall though, there are some good ideas, and it's a great way to get started. I can just see a beginner getting frustrated as pieces don't fit or don't work due to the mismatched diagrams and lack of instructions. I think a little more proofing on the part of the publishing company could have really cleared this up.
