Customer Reviews

If it ain't broke, you don't need this book. Otherwise...

...you need this book. While it lacks the narrative arc of, say, Moby Dick, it's just about as long -- and a heck of a lot more useful. Just the thing for an impromptu Nantucket sleigh ride (see p. 347). Look, what with what plumbers charge these days, you'll save the price of admission just as soon as you've saved $27. Extra bonus tip: If you have a table with one leg about 6 inches shorter than the other three, you can use the book itself to fix the table!
