Description

A must-have guide for furniture building novices, learn an easy “glue, screw, cap” joinery method from professional female woodworker, Eugenie Giasson, to assemble beautifully simple furniture! Using commonly found wood and commonly owned tools – just a saw and a drill – follow easy instructions, cutting templates, and power carving directions for decorative features for 30 furniture projects, including a coffee table, bench, and much more. Designer and owner of Eugenie Woodcraft in Montreal, Canada, author and professional woodworker Eugenie Giasson has been building furniture for 15 years. Realizing she didn’t like waiting around for the clamp-and-glue method, she devised her own called the glue-screw-and-cap method that allowed her to build furniture in a strong, fast, and efficient manner. Embellishing furniture with simple motifs carved with a handheld rotary tool, Giasson shares her methods within these pages to provide an accessible approach to building furniture for any beginning woodworker! 

About the author

Eugenie Giasson is the designer and owner of Eugenie Woodcraft in Montreal, Canada, where she makes quality furniture with a timeless look. She started woodworking about 15 years ago when she wanted a few shelves, but couldn’t follow the traditional method of building furniture. She started with a small shop and didn't have room for large equipment. She quickly found she didn't like waiting around for the clamp-and-glue method, so she devised a method of woodworking called the glue-screw-and-cap method. This new method suddenly allowed her to build furniture in a strong, fast, and efficient manner. Soon after, she found that she could embellish furniture with simple motifs carved with a handheld rotary tool. This type of carving is faster than the traditional method of carving, and adds a unique look without slowing down the production time. Eugenie now has over 150 plans, all with customizable color options, that she offers to clients, and can complete projects in a reasonable amount of time. The woodworking plans are available on  www.sawtoothideas.com.
