Encyclopedia of Furniture Making
by Ernest Joyce
When a book becomes so famous, so accepted as to be refered to simply as "Joyce", you can tell right away that this is a book you should have on your shelf. Not only should it be on your shelf, it should be in your hands OFTEN. Over 500 pages of wisdom, techniques, information, and knowledge. Even the casual woodworker will find this book useful. Extensive illustrations, photos and charts, the information is easy to follow and adapt to your situation. Any skill stand firmly on its foundations, Ernest Joyce pours out the concrete of furniture making. Although an older book, first published in 1970, the basics of furniture making remains consistent. I ran across this book while browsing my local woodshop and quickly lost myself within its pages. Simply said, this is some good stuff, if you don't have it, get it, this is a huge reference for not a lot of money.
