  • Standards. Take the guesswork out of designing kitchen cabinets, dining tables, desks, bookcases, and chests by applying the time-honored dimension and ergonomic standards shown here.
  • Options and Alternatives. With more than 150 joints and subassemblies at your fingertips, you'll be able to easily alter appearance or construction of any project.
  • Construction Solutions. More than 1,300 drawings take you inside the furniture and show you classic solutions to age-old problems, such as hanging a drawer, attaching a tabletop, and pegging a mortise.
  • Plans. If you don't have the time or inclination to design your own furniture, sources to locate the plans for most of the furniture pieces are included.

Illustrated Cabinetmaking is the most complete visual guide to furniture construction ever published. It includes hundreds of clearly-labeled drawings and exploded diagrams that explain everything there is to know about joints, subassemblies and furniture design.

Cabinet making

Book is good. Coves more than just cabinetmaking. Shows how to build chairs, desks tables. Also goes into different styles of making i.e. shaker, Victorian, Chippendale. Doesn't show you how to make, but gives you an understanding of what you are looking at. Does not give you detailed plans or measurements of how to construct.
