UPDATE: Book Giveaway: 1st five “issues” of The Missing Shop Manual series
Aug 01, 2010
The Missing Shop Manual:
Table Saw; Circular Saws and Jig Saws; Lathe; Drills and Drill Presses; Glue and Clamps
Fox Chapel Publishing, 2010.
$9.95 or $12.95 each; between 88-152 pgs each
Each book in The Missing Shop Manual series provides information so you can get the most out of your machines/tools. The “manuals” include set-up and safety advice and go on to cover basic operation and technique information. For example, the Tablesaw manual includes sections on ripping and crosscutting, cutting dados, rabbets and grooves, and has a chapter all about jigs. The books are filled with drawings and photos and come bound with durable covers so they can be used often in the shop. (More manuals are due out in later in the fall).
Lucky ckm is the winner. His “revealing” comment was chosen at random.
