Looking to get an introduction to the beautiful world of woodworking? “American Peasant” is an introduction to a style of furniture and decoration that is almost unheard of in the Americas. Built primarily with tongues, grooves and pegs, the furniture is frequently engraved with geometric symbols that beautify the piece and protect its owner.
With this book, you will learn to build 10 simple pieces using common tools and whatever lumber is on hand. You’ll learn to engrave the pieces using nothing more than a cheap craft knife and a vinyl flooring cutter. In addition to furniture making, "American Peasant" delves into other areas of the craft that will make you a more independent woodworker.
