From the Back Cover
For any woodworker, carpenter, artist, or maker, knowing what wood to use and how to use it is critical to woodworking success. To that end, The Essential Wood Book makes the basics of using and choosing wood easy to understand. While some wood books are highly scientific or overflowing with exotic or hard-to-find woods that you'll never use, this handy, user-friendly guide is the perfect resource for anyone seeking straight-forward information about buying and working with the most essential woods needed to tackle any project.

The Essential Wood Book includes:

    Helpful info on the most essential native and exotic woods from Ash to Zebrawood. Expert know-how on lumber grades, buying hardwood lumber, and navigating saw mills. Essentials of wood movement, squaring up rough lumber, and perfect flat panel glue-ups. Techniques for salvaging lumber, harvesting your own, and working with wild, discolored, and toxic wood. Pro tips for drying your lumber and easy-to-make storage projects.

Tim Snyder has served as executive editor of American Woodworker and Fine Homebuilding magazines, as a book division editor at the Taunton Press, and as co-author with Norm Abrams of two New Yankee Workshop books. Recently named editor of Woodcraft magazine, Snyder previously built a reputation as a freelance writer for national home improvement and home repair franchises such as DrEnergySaver.com, ContractorNation.com, and BasementSystems.com. He has also worked as a finish carpenter and completed major home renovation projects with his wife Barbara. The Snyders live in Sandy Hook, Connecticut.
