3.Authentic Shaker Furniture (Classic American Furniture Series)Authentic Shaker Furniture (Classic American Furniture Series)
from Popular Woodworking Books

Customer Review:
As a rather novice level woodworker, I bought this book primarily because of the subtitle, "10 projects you can build." "No big deal," I thought. A quick trip to the lumber yard and a few casual hours in the shop and I'd be napping in my new rocker. Actually starting on the projects, however, has... more info

Customer Review:
This book covers the design elements and construction of Shaker styled furniture. It also lightly covers the history.

There are several plans, unfortunately not the one on the cover. But, it should not be too hard to take what's in the book and create a plan for it as sizes are given.

from Countryman

Customer Review:
This is a bare bones manual with simple text and line drawings but limited construction detail. It's definitely worthwhile for bulders of shaker reproduction furniture, Good line drawings of authentic specimens are hard to find.

Customer Review:
I found "The Book of Shaker Furniture" to be very enlightening. I had no idea that REAL Shaker furniture was so ugly. However, to give the author credit, if I wanted to reproduce a piece, I could do so from his drawings and pictures very easily. I also learned a great deal about the history and... more info
