A step-by-step guide to carrying out such carpentry projects as a tugboat, block set, birdhouse, candle chandelier, doll cradle, stilts, puppet theater, easel, raft, lemonade stand, and coaster car.
Lester Walker's new book contains more than 40 invitations to explore--and maybe build--some of the most charming, eccentric, and livable tiny houses ever built or conceived in America. 1000 black-and-white drawings. 100 black-and-white photographs.
An award-winning architect designed the block building projects in this book. The projects span all levels of expertise from setting up rows to constructing Oz's Emerald City.
