Review by Library Journal Review
The late DeCristoforo was one of the preeminent authors of books about power tools and their use; probably only the prolific Patrick Spielman is in his league. This title, edited by DeCristoforo's son Daniel, examines a number of useful jigs and fixtures that originally appeared in his "Cris Cuts" column in Popular Woodworking magazine. In addition, there is a wealth of information about tools and short tips that solve workshop problems of all types. Somewhat unusual for a woodworking title is the short biography of the author, written by his son; it's a nice touch and a fitting tribute. DeCristoforo's titles have stood the test of time, and this one likely will as well. It should be purchased by public libraries. (c) Copyright 2010.
