When it comes to woodworking and techniques, it's difficult to tell what's from an older or newer publication.
I'd love to have this book. Good techniques are timeless.
I've not seen that book before. I'd love to have it in my collection.
This would be a great -- and greatly appreciated -- addition to my woodworking library.
Also would love to have this title.
This would be a great book to have in my library right now since I'm been out of work for awhile, have the material and time to play with my toys.
Who couldn't use more schooling on technique? Sign me up!
I am just starting to build furniture and am extremely interested in learning good techniques. I have been looking for a book like this. Sounds just like what I have been looking for to teach me how to be a good wood craftsman.
You never outgrow your need for milk or for good woodworking techniques.
looks good, count me in
Count me in. Thank you!
I am going from machining CNC to woodworking specifically furniture making,and know this publication would be of great assistance.
I know my library is one book short and this must be it.
just what I need in my quest to do better woodworking projects.
this looks like a great book for the collection.
Count me in, you can never read enough good books on woodworking.

It took me two years to learn how to make perfect handcut dovetails. If this book can teach me other techniques in less time then you will be doing a good deed by sending it to me. You will be sparing me some gray hairs and acid stomach and my neighboors the screaming and cussing... :)
I beleive this book would definitely help to improve my skills (and they definitely need improving). I am enjoying getting books to read/learn from and add to my collection.
Thanks for the opportunity.
Thanks - this book would be a great addition to my Woodworking library.

This is gonna be the one...
This is my magic comment that will destroy all man!
Sign me up for the book please!
There is always room for improvement, but the true skills are developed by jumping right into the fire. The approach sometimes may elude you, I trust this book can add a few pointers to move through a project with ease.

Thanks for the offer!
As a novice woodworker, Finewoodworking has become my mentor,my collegue, my workmate, and my best friend. To win this book would allow me to take all this wonderful source on holiday, to my workshop, on my doctors visits and read it at will as each project it in its infancy.
Thanks for the chance, I'd love to check out this book.
Sign me up,
thank you
the road to knowledge starts with the first...comment :)
Would love to add this to my shop.
Books have been my woodworking teachers. Virtually all I know about working wood has come from books and the internet. To me, there is nothing quite like paging through a book, absorbing the knowledge that the author is trying to impart.
I would be very happy to win this book and add it to my growing collection.
I am not very knowledgeable about woodworking but what little I have done I really enjoy it, any help would be greatly appreciated, and a book of this caliber is certainly a big help.
I'm always on the lookout for better methods. The "best" would surely be better.
Having lost my entire library (over 2500 books and many on woodworking) to a fire, I'd love to add this one to my new and growing collection. Thanks for the opportunity.
Looks like a good book to me, count me in too.

I'm 72, only started woodworking 1 1/2 years ago and want to become as good at it as I am able to be. Time's a wastin' and this book would add nicely to my small but growing store of knowledge. Thanks for the opportunity!!
Sign me up. I'd love to have another source of knowledge. Started woodworking when I retired, wish I had started 40 years ago.
The more knowledge I can gain the better. Learning from masters of wood working would be awesome!
Father's Day is coming. It would make a nice gift.
hello woodworking, hello techniques, goodbye hassle
Hi Guys & Dolls,

Ah, if only!! I would really - really - like to add this to my collection of books - and perhaps learn a trick or two.....
It has been four decades ago, and I still remember helping my father with a variety of woodworking projects, and fell in love with woodworking. Today I continue to enjoy what very little woodworking I can find time for. And it wasn't too many years ago I could find my father reading your articles. There is just something about working with wood, its ...
The magazine is inspiring, but doesn't leave me overwhelmed. You get better every year.
pick me, pick m
I want, no, need this book.
