Summary: Great Manual - Easy to Follow
Comment: The first 9 chapters of the manual outline the elements that must be considered when establishing a business. These chapters have condensed the topics, on which other authors have written volumes, to a reasonable level that allows a person to evaluate his situation. It may help that person to decide yea or nay on moving to the next step. I have an advantage over most since my business is the result of an expanded hobby after retiring as a professional engineer and not for my livelihood.

Chapters 10 to 18 of the manual are very readable, understandable and reasonably comprehensive for laying out, cutting, assembling, finishing and installing kitchen cabinets. The combination of European construction and North American styling produces cabinets that are sound and attractive. The manual was my 'bible' when I built my first cabinets and installed them. The various tables such as thoser on pages 68, 75, 76 and 85 coupled with the diagrams eliminates the need to do calculations in cutting pieces for any size standard cabinet. The author's step by step descriptions and procedures can be considered 'idiot-proof' for completing a successful project.

Chapters 19 to 22 on pricing, computers, proposals and reference sources finishes off a manual that can used as an excellent reference for a successful buiness in kitchen cabinetmaking.

The customer of my first kitchen that I mentioned above, is still very pleased with her kitchen and is quick to show it off to anyone that will look and listen, as related to me by her husband. I could have completed the project on my own without the manual but I am convinced that I, and my customer, would have suffered much grief and time delays.

I have also reviewed Danny Proulx's "Build Your Own Kitchen Cabinets". It is very similar to The Kitchen Cabinetmaker's Building and Business Manual but eliminnates the business part. It has more explanation and more diagrams so will be easier to follow.
