Rating: 5
Summary: Great Book of Plans
Comment: This book is a great "helper" for those who make Stickley inspired furniture. It has nominal dimensions for most pieces, which is a plus in helping with getting the proportions correct as well as milling lists for the projects. If you are looking for a "how-to" or complete plans you are in the wrong place. The illustrations in the book are straight from the original "The Craftsman" series.

Rating: 1
Summary: Save your money
Comment: The 62 proects are only a small picture of each final project with couple of drafted views of how the piece of furniture looks from different views. There is a parts list of materials needed, but no help in how to construct the furniture whatsoever. Any magazine or anything else out there has to be better than this. Everyone else has far over rated the book. Instead, subscribe to a good magazine like Popular Woodworking or something like that.

Rating: 4
Summary: For experienced woodworkers the results are BEAUTIFUL
Comment: My husband bought this book because of the variety of projects it includes. There are smaller projects like 3-legged stools and hanging bookshelves as well as very involved projects like cabinets and bedsteads. He commented that, as the other reviewers have noted, the directions are MINIMAL. But if you are familiar with the techniques and construction, the designs make absolutely spectacular items, that look exactly like the designs.
He made me the hanging bookshelf for Christmas and it is stunning. A great value if you're looking for design ideas and have the technical know how.
