I second this.

This is a very good book. I used it to make my horizontal mortiser after the one described in the book. I made a change to the set up for the board that mounts the router, to make it easier to adjust. I bolted the board to the base of the jig and installed a jack screw assembly to raise and lower the height of the bit. (not a real good photo)

Thanks for the review. I will have to look into reading this book.

Hey Loren,

thanks for your review and also for you review on the Festool router.
You said that you have 60 woodworking books, can you make a top 10 off your
most valuable books for me (if you have time) I’m also a woodworking book lover, and because off
my illness, and because I’m most off the day on my bed, I love to look in woodworking books.
I have a subscription on Fine Woodworking and Popular Woodworking and when I have not to mutts pain,
I reed them till the last letter, I understand not everything but it is great to see how the things do.
I’m still a beginner and I love to learn from the real woodworkers.

If there is somebody who want to sell some great woodworking books, send me a message.

Thanks again Loren and greetings from the Netherlands,

I’ve been thinking about the possibility of making a decent horizontal mortiser. I will check this book out.

Hi Loren
Good review . I have Gary Rogowskis book “Joinery ” I think it’s the best book on Joinery I have in 200 books.
So Now I have to Get Classic Joints with power tools to compare. It’s always good to keep an open mind that way you get new knowledge and in this case another book . Half.com has it for $11.49
