Customer Reviews

Better than Ikea!

This, along with three other books I have, give you everything you need to really furnish your house. I love this stuff. Can't wait to make that buffet, china hutch, and a handful of other things. I've always wanted to do this kind of thing, after watching my Dad do it for many years, and now I can.

Good Book

I haven't had a chance to make anything from this book yet. I like the designs and feel they can be made quickly, as long as you have the tools needed. I'm glad I bought it.

2 X 4 Furniture

The collection of 2 X 4 Furniture books are wonderful. The only thing they need are the dimensiions of the finished project stated. This way one can determine if the project will fit in their house. When is the next book coming out?????

Terrific 2X4 Furniture

I built the coffee table in this book, and it turned out really nice. Some of the dimensions are off, so I recommend buying as you go. Other than that the only power tool I needed was a small sander. Great book for the beginner.

Outstanding book with simple and plentiful instructions.

Of the three books I've purchased by Mr. Henderson, this is by far my favorite. Overall, the instructions and building techniques given are both very easy to understand and easy to perform. You won't need a shop full of expensive tools either to complete these projects because of the contruction techniques. This book contains an excellent plan (as well as very economical) for an entertainment center, which I have just completed, and I couldn't be more pleased. Great beginner/intermediate woodworking book.
