5.0 out of 5 stars
An excellent proessional reference,
By Sandy Gettings (Indialantic, FL USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Encyclopedia of Wood Joints (Paperback)
Most books about wood are about projects and how-to instructions for woodworking. In contrast, this is an academic tome describing the important characteristics of wood in general and of many individual species. Interesting in the general sense, and most valuable when you need a detailed description of a particular species. I have not found a comparable reference anywhere else. Excellent.

This is my favorite woodworking book. It is not a step by step guide but if you love to create your own designs this will spur your creative process. The joints are also a great pleasure to just look at.

Pretty pictures, no instructions.,

This review is from: Encyclopedia of Wood Joints (Paperback)
This collection of wood joints is just that. If you're looking to learn anything apart from trivia about wood joints, this is not the reference for you. Lots of pretty color pictures to ooh and aah over and a good many poor to confusing line drawings make this a passable coffee-table book and an absolutely useless shop reference! Mr. Graubner apparently likes to take pictures and talk to people but is totally unwilling to teach!
