The Drawer Book has it all - from the initial drawer design, through cutting the parts and fitting them, to cutting and assembling the joints and applying the final finish. Materials options, possible configurations and construction choices are discussed. Learn how to make through and half-blind dovetail joints, rout lock joints, sliding dovetails joints and many more. Whether it's sturdy utilitarian drawers for tool storage, practical drawers for the kitchen or closely fitted drawers for that family heirloom, the know-how you need is in this book. The construction and fit of the drawers defines a well-made piece of furniture and reflects the care taken by the craftsman.
