No way - don't buy it
Adirondack chair plan doesn't give sufficient information. After I cut all of the wood as instructed, found out that there are no measurements given for placement of key parts. Obviously this book was never shop tested. Do not buy this book.

Strong Projects- Weak Instruction
I bought this book solely to build the adirondack chair which I recently finished.Lots of Cut List info makes buying the lumber easy. However, once into a project the pictures/illustrations and descriptions of precise placement of key parts leaves much to be desired. I have built several other chairs from different plans and based on this experience, I sadly cannot recommend this book.

A wonderful variety of outdoor furniture styles.
Within an hour of receiving this book, I was on my way to the shop! Hylton has combined a great collection of projects that cover a nice variety of outdoor sytles, with hints that make the construction and finishing process easier. If I could make this book perfect, I would have included a few moredetails, drawings and measurements, but with some practical mathapplication, you get exactly what you need. The best part is that you don'tneed a dedicated shop to produce fine results. Ah, those of us with thehandheld powertools can rejoice. ... Read more

getting out my tools...ready to start!
Great projects, most are for a beginner, but interesting enough for moderately experienced woodworker. Superb photos and some extra ideas sketched in the margins make for really more than the 20 projects touted.

Integrated Thematic Learning
This book is a great teacher resource book for learning about animals that live in trees. I use it with my Pre-K kids during our forest animals unit. The lessons include a raccoon puppet and an owl art project, but this guide is more than just a craft instruction book. The children will learn all about raccoons and owls and other animals before making each project. The art and science lessons are very well integrated. Many of the animals also have large pull-out posters to use during discussions. ... Read more

Whole lotta gnome photos
If you want to see a lot of different styles of gnomes, a lot of gnomes grouped together and all the crazy ways people collect and put gnomes in their yards, this is the book for you.This is not a book so much about the fantasy species of Gnome, but about actual garden gnomes - the statue kind.It does have information in it about both garden gnome statuary and "real" gnomes.It discusses the gnomes as if they are sentient while still acknowledging that they are statues.Learn about the garden gnome sanctuary in England and gnome holidays and learn that, if you are crazy about garden gnomes, you are not alone!

A gallery of gnomes
Gnomes were originally introduced into gardens to enhance their appearance but you can now find gardens where the gnomes, rather than the vegetation, are the focal point. In this book, the author-photographer provides an introductory text giving a brief history of gnomes before treating us to an impressive display of photographs, all in color, that clearly illustrate why so many people love gnomes. It seems that the best place to see traditional gnomes is Sweden but it is in Britain where gnome culture is strongest.

Garden ornaments are one of the hot decorating themes today. You see them in stores and catalogs all over. This book will inspire you to make your own unique and sophisticated items that will beautify and enhance your outdoor space for years to come. Unusual, simple projects for home and garden
Garden Ornaments, 128 pages, over-size ppb.: This book was a real problem for me to review . . . because Iwant to, and don't have room to describe about 20 of the 30 projects within its pages that are so: Garden Oranments from Rockport Publishers is a treasure book
