Step-by-step projects are presented showing what you can build with that tool (plus the basic toolset). For example, adding a router to your tool arsenal allows you to gracefully round edges on tables and shelves; buying a simple doweling jig opens up the world of joinery. As well as power tools, hand tools are also introduced. In all, 14 fun projects will be presented, all built with just a few woodworking tools and off-the-shelf lumber.

The world is a beautiful and terrifying place, where the lands have secrets of their own. There's a rustle in the trees in the French countryside. Is it the wind? Or the soldiers who should have died just once? The fields of India encircle the shaman as he performs rituals that can take away a life or bring it back. The woods next to a lake in New England hide a camp full of archetypes and a psycho who may or may not wear a mask. There's something about a place in time folded into a tale that becomes a character of its own, something that tantalizes and mesmerizes. From the twisting, gravel roads of New Zealand to the dusty, hard-lived ranches of the American West, we travel the world to find the disturbed, the mysterious, and the heart-wrenching. Authors Luke Bandy, Nick Barton, S. B. Roark, Michael D. Burnside, Gwyneth Cooper, Dana Himrich, Brooke Reynolds and introduce us to their worlds and invite us in to see it as they do. We might never be the same.
