Customer Reviews

Weekend Handman

I bought this book to get ideas for my deck and patio project, this book made the job run very smooth and gave me time saving tips along the way, I would highly recommend this book for the average do-it-yourself handman.

Very Informative

It's one of the two books hubby is using to help him build our deck. It has solidified his plans and given him concrete principles to work with. I'm glad there is someone out there writing this stuff so that wives can get their husbands moving on these honeydo's....:)
