Hi All - newcomer here
G'day.
Just discovered this site only this morning and am looking forward to delving in. I stumbled onto 'you' as a result of searching for Time-Life's series 'Custom Woodworking'. More specifically 'Outdoor Projects: Deck, Lawn & Garden'.
I did a woodworking course a couple of years ago and built two adirondack chairs - couldn't believe how much fun it was.
Well I want to build some more (and more assorted projects) - and possibly sell them. Read here: mid-life crisis and time for a change.
Can anyone help me find this book - or even the entire series? I've discovered there is an Australian 'version' with metric as apposed to US imperial - which would be far better.
Anyway, nice to meet you, and cheers to all.

Hey Justin. Was starting to think I'd done something wrong cause I wasn't getting any responses or welcomes.
No worries about the book - sure something will turn up.
I found 'plans' available on the US 'Woodsmith' website, so at least I can order from there if need be.
What sort of woodwork do you do?
Cheers
Captain

G'day Captain - welcome to the clever site. Visit you local library and ask them if they can ID the book for you.
