While many 2x4 books offer pretty clunky furniture projects, it doesn?t have to be that way. Arts & Crafts furniture designs lend themselves to working with dimensional lumber fairly easily. Working with 1x, 2x and some plywood (all available in home center stores), many attractive furniture pieces (for indoors and outdoors) are not only possible, but simple. This book includes 20 Arts & Crafts inspired furniture and household pieces, built using dimensional lumber from home center stores. Joinery is simple (biscuits, dowels and screws) and require very limited woodworking tools and machinery.
