Nice projects for the beginner/intermediate woodworker

I bought this book a while ago for the plans to the swing that is shown on the book cover. I built the swing out of cypress and hung it from our porch with nylon rope; it came out really nice. The book begins with a brief discussion of types of wood, fasteners, glue, hardware and tools. The instructions are given in clear step-by-step sequence, which reference exploded diagrams of the finished product. There is a materials list for each project, which really helps when shopping for the parts. Projects are useful and nicely designed in most cases. There are 53 projects separated into categories of Planter Boxes, Raised Beds, Trellises, Gardening Aids and Outdoor Furniture. I think if you like wood projects and find pride in using outdoor and garden items you have made yourself, this book would be a good addition to your library.
