   Have a small shed (as we call it in the UK), cleaned and sharpened some inherited hand tools and bought small bandsaw, planer/thickneser and couple routers. Looking for that kick up the proverbial to spend the time learning how they should be used and what they can do before senses fail....

    Fred3904 | Aug 09, 2011 11:29pm | #43

    I have been receiving woodworking magazines for many years. Since receiving Fine Woodworking my skill level has improved to the point that I am slowly seeking out a transition from my home repair business to a dedicated business in building fine furniture. I feel that this will be a great future for me to fully enjoy. These books would help me on by quest for special knowledge and skills towards this dream.

    rans0med | Aug 10, 2011 12:19am | #44

    Just remodeled my basement to include a workshop and can't wait to fill it with some tools! The only thing better than collecting tools is collecting books about how to use them!

45. 
    Marlon86 | Aug 10, 2011 01:07am | #45

    These books are a must read for beginner woodworkers and a nice refresher for the experienced ones as well. I just plain want them myself. Not greedy or nothing...well, yes i want them. :)

    galen_stilwell | Aug 10, 2011 02:10am | #46

    routers and information what a powerfull combination! small, large,tabled, freehand, or jig work, what a blast but always better with Knowledge! I hope whoever wins would be willing to share the experance with someone.

52. 
    MichaeleensDa | Aug 10, 2011 02:06pm | #52

    I have the Missing Manual for Tablesaws and the book for bandsaws. They are a great introduction for someone like me with hand me down tools.

53. 
    MichaeleensDa | Aug 10, 2011 02:12pm | #53

    By the way, I can highly recommend the magazine Tune Up Your Tools. I think I might be able to save an old router with information I learned in that magazine.

    Holtdoa | Aug 10, 2011 03:54pm | #54

    I have heard about these, would love to win these volumes!

    tjocpa | Aug 10, 2011 03:57pm | #55

    These "Missing Manuals" are reminicent of the Charles Hayward books of a generation or so ago. They look like they would be very useful to have.

    Smitty15 | Aug 12, 2011 07:02pm | #69

    I'm a beginner woodworker and have cherished every piece of literature I can get my hands on. I have 3 kids under 3 years old...and the time to spend in the shop can be tough to find...so having reading material close at hand has been the best thing to keep my eneregy and inspiration alive. It's also created a HUGE wishlist of pieces I look forward to building in the future.

    I hope I win!

    Best regards,
    Jake

    I am in recovery mode from Knee replacement surgery and using this down time to read up on wood working articles. I have always been involved building wood furniture and products from my own design, with many ideas are inspired from articles and plans from your magazine and books.
    This would be an oportune time to read and improve my skills through your missing book series. I have a large collection of books and I would love to add this set to my collection

    Books look great! I am just starting out so I am currently soaking up as much info as I can. In fact in about a week I am buying a couple of new tools(bench plane, router and drill) as at the moment I really only have a saw and a mortise chisel. So any books on using these tools would be great.
