Sharing his legendary techniques for coopered doors, doweling, dovetail joints, frame-and-panel work, and other cabinetry details, master craftsman Krenov shows how to shape wood the way it was meant to be shaped. Beginning with the basics of selecting and preparing wood, he shows how first-rate execution and flawless finished surfaces are the hallmark of his work, and can be in yours, too.
