Yes, I'm new to the forum. So if this question is in the wrong spot, sorry. Anyway, I chose this forum because of the title…"Skill Share". I was looking to get a list of specific books people have found helpful, inspiring, or good for reference. Cabinet making books especially…but anything is cool. I read everything.

I would consider a Fine Woodworking online membership. You'll find a ton of information there. Taunton also has a number of good books/magazines available. I have found Bob Flexner's book on finishing to be a very good reference.

Even though I use power tools whenever possible, I have learned a lot from Roy Underhill. http://www.uncpress.unc.edu/woodwright/
And the only woodworking book that I have reviewed:
Illustrated Cabinetmaking How to Design and Construct Furniture That Works By Bill Hylton Fox Chapel
http://lumberjocks.com/reviews/3843
Read the comments, you will want this book,
Also, I have not read any, but for finishing, I would look to Charles Neil.
Enjoy!
