Green Wood: 15 Easy Weekend Projects for the Garden (Hardcover) by Alan Bridgewater (Author), Gill Bridgewater (Author)
When a tree is first felled, the wood is green and very easy to cut, bend and shape, making it a good material for making tools, furniture and plant supports. Working with green wood is an age-old craft brought up-to-date in this manual. With a comprehensive introductory section on tools, techniques and types of wood, the book contains 15 easy-to-follow projects - many of which can be completed in a weekend - ranging from trellises, pergolas and benches to tables, plant supports and even a "living willow" arch. In addition, each project is accompanied by step-by-step instructions and photographs, illustrations showing design variations, as well as a full-colour photograph of the finished piece.

Guitar Making (Step by Step) (Step by Step) (Paperback) by Alex Willis (Author)
Making an acoustic guitar is much easier than most people suppose and this straightforward guide shows you how. With basic woodworking skills, a modest work space and only a few specialist tools, you too can make an instrument fit for the concert platform. All stages are fully illustrated with colour photos and clear drawings and contain detailed plans for every part of the instrument. It even helps with choosing materials, tuning the soundboard, placing the frets and adjusting the action - all steps which are crucial to the making of a top-quality instrument. The guitar described is a steel-stringed OM cutaway orchestra model with 14 frets to the body joint. It is ideal for the fingerstyle player, giving good projection in bass, middle and treble ranges.
