Skillful Tradesmen!
Fine
Magazine is the undisputed leader in the field and
also publishes Fine Homebuilding magazine which is
in a similar format but focused more on remodeling
ideas for the home. Each issue offers at least one
furniture plan of a product, that would be a show
piece in your home, but could be quite challenging
to build. You'll also find rare tips on finishing
techniques and articles reviewing commercial finishes
as well as a guide to mixing your own finishes.

will give information from woodworkers who write about

Fine
is published with six, bi-monthly issues and one special
