Back by popular demand, these classic woodworking titles from Fine Woodworking magazine are filled with first-rate information that is as timeless now as it was when first published.

One of the most enjoyable aspects of woodworking is sharing what you've learned about tools, materials, jigs, and fixtures with fellow woodworkers. A craftman's solitary small victory over a knotty shop problem can make the work a little easier for hundreds of others. This is the idea behind the popular "Methods of Work" section in Fine Woodworking magazine. For years, "Methods of Work" has served as a kind of national switchboard for woodworkers eager to share tips, jigs, and shop tricks. This book is a collection of these contributions. If you've ever thought to yourself during a grueling session at the workbench, "There's got to be a better way", you'll probably find it here.

Since it began publication in 1975, Fine Woodworking has written about practically every aspect of the craft. The "Fine Woodworking on..." series organizes many of the articles from the magazine into individual volumes by subject. Each book in this series offers an in-depth look at a particular aspect of woodworking, from the perspective of skilled professional and dedicated amateur woodworkers.
