Classic Joints with Power Tools - Yeung Chan

Although Chan advises using power tools for speed and precision, he advocates a balance between hand and power tools for truly fine work and gives a sound overview of each. His description of jigs for the table saw, bandsaw and router covers all jigs necessary for the joints he describes. His step-by-step instructions with diagrams and copious colour photographs, starting with simple joints and proceeding to the complex, should enable even the advanced woodworker to develop improved techniques. He finishes with a gallery of photographs of truly inspiring furniture. 175 pages.
