A table saw is the favorite tool for cutting wood of all sizes, but it can do so much more. This spiral-bound, topic-tabbed guide to its hundreds of functions is like buying a host of new tools at a fraction of the cost. Every technique gets a clear, fully illustrated explanation. Cutting processes include crosscutting, ripping, mitering, and beveling as well as joinery cuts such as dadoes and rabbets. The guide to accessories ranges from standard to advanced options. Methods for cutting every type of stock are followed by a section on dado head types-- stack, wobble, and adjustable V-shape. A valuable safety survey focuses on preventing common accidents. Best of all is the huge section of tips and shortcuts for mastering dozens of procedures: ripping and crosscutting stock; cutting miters and rabbets; and making dadoes, joints, tenons, and mortises. Everything comes together in plans for a panel door and frame.

To enjoy woodworking, all you need is a few essential tools, a little bit of space, and the desire to make something with your own two hands. The Minimalist Woodworker is about making woodworking clean and simple--from the tools and the workspace to the easy-to-follow instructions. Woodworking is thriving in the hands-on, DIY, maker world we currently live in. Yet, for it's increasing popularity, there are many crafters who don't engage in woodworking because they falsely believe you need a large workshop and a full-blown collection of tools and equipment. The Minimalist Woodworker disproves this myth. It eliminates the fears and excuses as it demystifies the craft. Written by Vic Tesolin, aka the Minimalist Woodworker, a woodworker and woodworking instructor, The Minimalist Woodworker is a stress-free approach for the hobbyist that emphasizes the destination is actually the journey. Beginning with an understanding of the minimalist mindset, The Minimalist Woodworker quickly details how to make a small space productive and outlines the most efficient tools for a woodworker. Each piece of equipment is explained and instructions on how to use are provided. Techniques for keeping them sharp and maintained are also explained. Once space and tools are covered, seven projects are presented: a saw bench and matching saw horse, a Nicholson-style workbench, a shooting board/bench hook, a shop mallet, and a small hanging cabinet. Each project not only develops woodworking skills, but also outfits the minimalist woodworker's small shop. With step-by-step instruction, photos and illustrations, and an easy-going voice, The Minimalist Woodworker offers a stress-free point of entry into the life-long craft of woodworking.
