Book Review by J. Norman Reid The Anarchist's Design Book, the latest book by Chris Schwarz, once again breaks new ground in the field of woodworking literature. It is, as its title states, a design book. But Schwarz delivers far more than a selection of designs.
He introduces us in a structured way to vernacular furniture, the stuff common folks made and used daily, as an alternative to the more ornate and stylized pieces that populate museums and adorn the homes of the wealthy.
Along the way, he seizes many opportunities to teach alternative methods of building the designs he presents, bringing them within reach of woodworkers at practically all levels of experience. Click here to read the rest of the review Click here to learn more about

| | | | |  CLASS: Build a Backsaw Hands-on Workshop
April 23-24 Building your own backsaw is not as difficult as you would think. Instructor Tom Calisto usually teaches saw-building at Roy Underhill's Woodwright's School, but he is at Highland next month! In 2 days Tom will guide you through crafting your own saw that will slice through wood as well as any on the market. Beginning with a rough tote, precision milled brass back, brass saw nuts and a blank spring steel saw plate you will transform these components into a high end saw.

by Geo. R Walker & Jim Tolpin  Book review
by J. Norman Reid This book is folksy and approachable to the average woodworker. It's personal. It's even humorous. If you are yearning to understand what you find pleasing in furniture design, or if you want to spread your wings a bit and develop a personal style but don't quite know how to get started, this book is a great place to start.
