The All-New Woodworking For Kids Read Free Books and Download eBooks
The All-New Woodworking for Kids takes an already popular book and gives it more: more projects children will love and more information in an expanded introductory section on tools, materials, techniques, and safety. Plus, this invaluable guide—one of the rare woodworking volumes created especially for kids—has been completely redesigned with thoroughly contemporary photographs. Of the nearly 40 projects included, 15 are brand-new and 25 have been redesigned. So now it’s even easier and more fun for kids to handmake a bench for their own workshop, create a DVD storage cube that spins, build a doggie diner, or craft adjustable stilts, a box with a secret drawer, and many other long-lasting items.

We just bought this book for our 13 year old son. He was very excited about the projects in the book.The projects include:A workbench (4'x2' and 30" tall), miter box, tool box, compass tool, bench hook, assorted bird houses, a squirrel feeder, standing cat scratching post, dog house for a small dog, critter observation station, bike stand, 2 toy boats, rope ladder (like the kind you would use for a tree house), a scooter, 8' balance beam, baseball shelf (holds bat, glove and balls), curio-type shelf, jewelry tree, desktop organizer, study partner (holds your book open), table top easel, a heart box (the heart is added as a sort of handle, could cut a different shape, the box is like a shoebox), place card holders, key rack (holds keys), media tower for dvds or cds, travel checkers, airplane, drum, and a tesselation bird puzzle.The pictures are very good and clearly show the finished item. The directions appear easy to follow. Time estimates are given for each project varying from a few hours to 6-8 hours to 8-12 hours.Powering off the pc/video games and headed to Lowe's this weekend to get supplies for the workbench and the dog house....
This is a great book for middle school students. I teach woods at a middle school and this is a great book for projects for my classes. It has smaller projects that can be done with limited tools. Also, since the projects are smaller, they are inexpensive. It was just what I was looking for.
This book is excellent. The first section includes an age appropriate description of tools and different woods. The colorful pictures in the book are helpful and engaging. The project section includes projects that a child might really like to make. I love the shopping list for each project that makes it easy for the builder to know what exactly he or she needs to make a project. The time estimates for each project are realistic. So far, the projects our tween has built have required either little or minimal adult help. The young builder can really do it by himself or herself. (Not the first time our child has worked with wood.) I love this book!
I use this book with my 5 year old son. The projects are interesting for him to do and less time is needed since I use power tools. The instructions are very easy to understand. Now that winter is over he can't wait to get back in the garage and do more projects.
Beyond birdhouses, this book contains a number of projects that kids will really want to build and use. Adult guidance will be required for younger kids, but these projects are well within the capabilities of middle school age kids, particularly if they have taken a decent shop class.
Grandson was excited about receiving this for Christmas. He loves to put things together and with a little experience in woodworking we thought we could do this together this spring. Simple instructions, easy to understand!
I ordered this book for my young teen granddaughter to inspire the use of a set of carpentry tools she received for the holiday. Wanted a book that would appeal to that age. The instructions are clearly written and cover carpentry basics—proper use of tools, safety, and planning. The projects are creative and practical, too. This would be a great book for a parent/grandparent with some woodworking skills to share with a youngster.
My grandson was very excited when he opened this present up this year. I looked at it and it looks like it has a lot of nice things he can build when he can get some help from a Grandpa or Father. He loves working with wood. Thanks
