Making Woodwork Aids & Devices

Even the best-equipped woodworker sometimes needs a special tool to handle a task--and here are over 200 ingenious pieces that you can make yourself! Ranging from simple jigs, marking aids, and holding devices to more complex machining and specialist equipment, every one speeds up work, cuts down on time-consuming and repetitive jobs, and reduces costly waste. Set up an easy-to-make sawing board that eliminates movement better than conventional designs--an advantage for the beginner. Scribers ensure table legs that are level and wobble-free. There are a dovetail marking system, a cutter for inlay grooves, light cramps of fixed sizes, a variety of planes, a pull-through thicknessing scraper, and many more, all shown in line drawings. 224 pages, 300 black & white illustrations.
