From a porch swing to a garden bench and a birdbath to a window box, woodworkers will find projects to display in their backyards, verandas, and terraces in this guide. Each of the easy-to-build projects comes complete with a full-size pattern for such constructions as an Adirondack chair, a chaise longue, a redwood picnic table, a garden obelisk, a redwood foot bridge, and a butterfly house. Compiled from the pages of Weekend Woodcrafts magazine, each project includes a pattern that has been bound into the book in a secure pattern pocket. Tips on which woods to use, how to use basic power tools, the secrets to finishing success, and safety tips that no woodworker should do without are all detailed. Geared toward the advanced beginner, each project includes material and supply lists.
