    • I love this book!
Format: Paperback
Book of Building Projects is exactly what I was looking for. There are various size projects, all would be helpful on a homestead and there are great tips and suggestions for beginners. In fact, the instructions are very clear and don't require very expensive tools. Highly recommend!

    • Gave me a lot of great ideas. Some of these are really simplistic
Format: Paperback
Gave me a lot of great ideas. Some of these are really simplistic, but I think that is what the author was aiming for. I did bookmark a few projects to come back to at another time, which would save me money if I implement them. Or look at it as free plans if you follow the authors directions step by step. ... show more

    • Great book for beginner on up.
Format: Paperback
The quantity of projects in this book is amazing. There is so much to build from the simple to the complex. Everything is laid out with easy designs to follow, along with a comprehensive parts and materials list to buy. The beginning of the book has good info for the beginner on how to work with wood and what tools you will need to help overall construction. I bought this for my wife and told her to mark the pages of the things she wanted me to build. Near half the book is dog eared, I'll be busy for a long time and she'll be happy for a long time. ... show more

    • Really cool book....
Format: Paperback
This is a fantastic how-to book for so many backyard building projects. The directions are written in a clear and understandable format, and there are helpful illustrations to guide you along the way. Everything from a tool shed to a chicken coop to a rack to dry homemade pasta and homegrown herbs. This would be a fantastic gift for those just dabbling in the DIY arena or for those seasoned carpenters as well. Directions are specific and easy to understand. There are so many projects in this book that are relevant to how many are choosing to live today. A well-written, well-illustrated, thought-out guide. I loved it. ... show more

    • Great projects
Format: Kindle
Love this book. Covers tools and safety first. Just as any project book should. There are numerous useful projects that I will be building for my small homestead. The instructions are clear enough for a non builder like me. There are plenty of pictures to show what you should have after cutting the wood as instructed. The problem with the book opening only to the first page has been fixed. I have a kindle hd and the book opens to where I last viewed it. Thank you for so many good garden project ideas. I especially like the tool caddy - repurposing an old golf caddy. Brilliant! This is something that will save me many steps and wasted time in the garden. ... show more

    • Worth every penny! A great resource!
Format: Paperback
Kept the copy from the public library so long, we owed $1.40 in fines! This is a great book - solid resource for basic information, wonderful photos, project lists, and how-to information. It will be dog-eared in no time, as we are having s blast reviewing the many projects we'd like to tackle. Though our carpentry skills are basic, this gives enough information that I'm confident we will begin projects with greater confidence and end with success. ... show more
