"You Can Now Master The Art Of Woodworking With These Simpl Woodworking Projects! " |
If you’re interested in wood working then this could be the most important message you will ever read.

From The Desk Of: Harold Kay
Dear Friend,
Since you’ve found this website I suppose it’s ok to let you know… “I’m very fond of woodworking.” The truth is, I’m always on the internet looking for ways to work with wood and make amazing things. That’s what led me to put this website up. Let me explain…
While surfing around the internet, I stumbled upon something so fantastic that it immediately got my attention… In fact, I discovered something sooo amazing that at first I thought it was "too good to be true" like most things are.
You see, a few months ago, I was doing some research on Ira Samuel Griffith one of the most well-known and respected wood workers in recent history. I noticed that most of his work was available and accounted for with the exception of one of his most important pieces of work,‘Essential's Of Woodworking'.
Well, this got me curious and so I started digging a little deeper; I started to send off a few emails asking questions, but unfortunately every road I seemed to head down was a dead end… until a couple of weeks ago that is…
By a stroke of luck, I emailed my story to one of my favorite site’s webmasters… as it turned out he had an old copy of this difficult to find book - it was right under my damn nose. After numerous emails I finally got him to mail me his copy.
I Uncovered One Of The Most Important Woodworking Manuscripts Of All Time....
Even though it was first published in 1908 this book has the best woodworking information I have ever seen.
In the 10 chapters here’s just a snippet of what you’ll learn:
What some of the tools you'll need and the 'elementary' process...when working with wood. Like the rule, try square and loads more.
How to use the plane...and how to sharpen it. This tool is a must when it comes to making a piece of wood really smooth.
All about the drill bit...especially the 'Gimlet' bit. This bit is a bit fragile, so care must be taken when using it, discover what you must do to prevent this from happening.
Tips and tricks when using the 'brad awl'...that will make using this great little tool much easier.
The correct way to do through boring...and how to stop chipping when doing it.
The difference between these two chisels...the 'framing' chisel and the 'firmer' chisel. Each has it's own use, You'll find out what they are and how to apply them.
How to use the Mallet...when working with wood. A very handy tool when banging two pieces together.
And there’s loads more…
At this point, you might be wondering how you can get your hands on a copy…
Well here’s the good news.
After doing even more research (I told you I was an woodworking addict) I have contacted the original copyright owners and gained permission to republish Ira Samuel Griffith’s complete work on this website.
Because woodworking is my passion and I want to share it with as many people as possible. Believe it or not, I’ve decided to do something completely unheard of these days. I’m going to let you have this amazing manuscript for nothing.
It’s FREE… Yes 100% FREE
Now you have no excuse for not being able to make the best timber pieces that everyone who comes to your home will admire.
So without any further adieu, let’s get started...
