Any woodworker knows that the usefulness of common woodshop tools, both hand and power, is limited to a few basic functions. This is where the use of jigs and shop accessories comes in to create infinite possibilities, shortcuts, and faster or more accurate ways of using common tools to create extraordinary woodworking results. Here are some of America's most clever woodworkers' tips on guiding tools and solutions for common problems found in the woodshop. Included is expert advice on choosing the right materials for jig-making, special-purpose work benches and workbench fixtures, router tables and jigs for joinery and shaping, table-saw jigs for ripping, cross-cutting, joinery and safety, jigs for drill presses, lathes, planers, and chop saws that will show the woodworker how to produce nearly any kind of finished piece imaginable in less time and with greater accuracy. This detailed and well-illustrated book will no doubt become a fixture in many woodshops and will be referred to repeatedly by both hobbyists and professional woodworkers. --Mark A. Hetts
