The Practical Guide to Designing and Building Your Dream Shop.
Includes CD-ROM.
The proliferation of home woodworking has been a boon to lumber yards and do-it-yourself stores but problematic for the hobbyist, who is often more eager than educated when it comes to setting up a home workshop. Furniture designer and builder Sandor Nagyszalanczy addresses the problem in this book, a no-nonsense how-to guide with hundreds of specific suggestions and proven practical advice on building a new workshop or improving a warn-out one.
Specific chapters cover shop location; floor and wall materials; electricity and lighting; heating and ventilation; and storage areas. The accompanying CD-ROM offers layout planning tools, calculations for conversions, tool acquisition schedules, and other valuable features.
