DO NOT BUY
This is NOT a book for beginners. It is NOT a comprehensive book. It talks only about wood finish cabinets, it does not talk about other finishes. It is a very short book. Illustrations and diagrams are NOT clear. DO NOT BUY.

Extremely good book for the newcomer to cabinetry
I'm new to cabinet-building but experienced enough in carpentry. This was an extremely useful book for me, I've never done pocket hole screws or done biscuit joining before and my first standard kitchen cabinet was by far a solid success story. They cover all the basics from standard kitchen cabinet-making, to pantry cabinets, to non-standard cabinets like corner cabinets with detailed outside faces. I'm currently redoing an entire kitchen from scratch and I'm using the book extensively. I haven't done the doors yet, but they've got some extremely nice looking door plans in place. Covers general guides for planing and joining to make your own butcher block countertops, a number of different side-facing and detailed routing plans for both doors and out-facing cabinet sides. Detailed corner cabinet build plan. They don't go into detail on how to do biscuit joinery, but that took me a 5 minute guide on youtube and I was good to go. Aside from buying the pocket screw kit and the biscuit joiner, I'm spending roughly 100 dollars in materials and something like 6-8 hours per cabinet to build the two standard oak 36 inch base cabinets I've done. I'm picky on my own work but I think they look great. Some of this would be old hat to a guy who's done a lot of cabinets and I'm sure they'd be using staples somewhere where this guy uses screws, pocket screws and biscuit joining 95% of the time but I appreciate something that's going to last a long time if put together well. I've read through a few cabinet books before and generally they'd be very general in nature

Excelente compra
Excelente compra, el libro está muy bien ilustrado, contiene información muy valiosa y tips para carpintería de muebles de cocina. Es en inglés pero fácil de entender si se está familiarizado con los tecnisismos del oficio.
