Customer Reviews

Not as easy as it looks.

Great pictures and really step-by-step, from getting the right tools to measuring twice, to cautions. The only thing that is not the book’s fault is that it is not as easy as the pictures, and there are many little things as leftovers and practice before tackling the real thing. I think I am going to go ahead and pay a professional. Even at that, it is good to know what they are doing by reading this book beforehand.
