2 out of 5 stars a waste of time   March 21, 2008
 3 out of 7 found this review helpful

a waste of time if you are actually looking for constructive finishing of a specific wood. This guy is more interested in impressing you with what he knows rather than helping you understand how to finish your project.

This book along with Teri Masaschi's book saved a 3 month project. Bob's is technical and Teri's is "how to" so they compliment each other. Get both. If you have never finished a large expensive project before, this is mandatory reading. My first piece was a queen bed, Stickley style, out of cherry. Thanks to them it turned out beautiful.


4 out of 5 stars I learned a lot from this book.   January 13, 2008

Well written and full of a lot of useful information. I only gave it 4 stars because there is very little information about painting. I wish the author had devoted a full chapter or 2 on painting and sanding between coats and the differences of the many types of paint compounds.


5 out of 5 stars Best hands on book yet   December 1, 2007

Enjoyed this book very much. It can be used by beginners to very advanced. Easy and complete instructions


2 out of 5 stars Disappointed - old version   November 5, 2007
 4 out of 8 found this review helpful

I checked out a book by Bob Flexner from the library and liked it so much I wanted to buy it. But this book was NOT the same book. I could not tell until I received it from Amazon that it was an old version that was considerably inferior (content and print and photo quality) to the more recent book I had checked out.
