For thirty years, Roy Underhill's PBS program, The Woodwright's Shop, has brought classic hand-tool craftsmanship to viewers across America. Now, in his seventh book, Roy shows how to engage the mysteries of the splitting wedge and the cutting edge to shape wood from forest to furniture.Beginning with the standing tree, each chapter of The Woodwright's Guide explores one of nine trades of woodcraft: faller, countryman and cleaver, hewer, log-builder, sawyer, carpenter, joiner, turner, and cabinetmaker. Each trade brings new tools and techniques; each trade uses a different character of material; but all are united by the grain in the wood and the enduring mastery of muscle and steel.
Hundreds of detailed drawings by Eleanor Underhill (Roy's daughter) illustrate the hand tools and processes for shaping and joining wood. A special concluding section contains detailed plans for making your own foot-powered lathes, workbenches, shaving horses, and taps and dies for wooden screws.
The Woodwright's Guide is informed by a lifetime of experience and study. A former master craftsman at Colonial Williamsburg, Roy has inspired millions to just say no to power tools through his continuing work as a historian, craftsman, activist, and teacher. In The Woodwright's Guide, he takes readers on a personal journey through a legacy of off-the-grid, self-reliant craftsmanship. It's a toolbox filled with insight and technique as well as wisdom and confidence for the artisan in all of us.

Overall good condition but the materials could be in better shape
Color: Ultimate Sticker Making
I just did the practice cut. The machine seems to work okay so far. The 4 star rating is because they did not pack it very well. All the materials came bent even the cutting mat. I will update after I talk with the seller.

A huge disappointment
Color: Ultimate Sticker Making
Truly a disappointment, with a brand new computer that exceeds the recommended specs, the software is incredibly slow, glitchy, and fails more times than succeedes. When it does finally cut something out it cuts wonderfully, but freezes often and more often than not, I hit cut and it freezes then I have to wait anywhere between 30 seconds to 15 minutes for it to actually cut the material, then anywhere between 30 seconds and 15 minutes to unload the material. Truly disappointed
