Description

Whether you’re interested in becoming a handyman or developing artisanal woodworking skills, the starting point is by learning the fundamentals of the use of basic workshop tools as it should be. The place to learn the way is right here. Make: Tools is shop class in a book.

Consumer-level 3D printers and CNC machines are opening up new possibilities for makers. But there will at all times be a need for traditional workshop skills and tools. Charles Platt’s Make: Tools applies the same approach to its subject matter as his bestselling Make: Electronics — in-depth explanations and hands-on projects that steadily increase in level of challenge.

Illustrated in full color with hundreds of photographs and line drawings, the book serves as a perfect introduction to workshop tools and materials for young adults and adults alike. Platt makes a speciality of basic hands tools and assumes no prior experience or knowledge on the a part of the reader. The projects all result in fun games, toys, and puzzles. The book serves as both a hands-on tutorial a reference so that you can be returned to over and over again.
