"If you think a box is just a box, you're in for a surprise. The boxes Lydgate details are...handcrafted works that call for such exotic woods as rosewood, purpleheart, satinwood, and Hawaiian koa....Not a lot of board feet are needed for any project and the average woodworker will have the tools to make every project in the book."--Booklist.
