I just spent the weekend devouring Don Williams new book - Virtuoso: The Tool Cabinet and Workbench of Henry O Studley. Thought I'd film a page-through of the book to give you a flavor of its contents. Buy the book if you haven't already. I can't imagine any woodworker not thoroughly enjoying this book.

Marty thank you for the review The book looks very interesting I will probably go ahead and order one, probably not sharp enough to spot the flaws that William points out that are in the book William at this point I think you want to give this a rest

When I read the book I was focused (captivated) by the pictures and story telling. I never noticed any superficial flaws, if they exist. That being said, nothing is perfect, so set your (William) expectations accordingly.

Thanks so much for sharing. I'm going to have to add this book to my library. I still have a big poster of this Toolchest to get mounted.

Just in case anyone else is as confused as I was —*the photo at the top of pg. 142 for a pair of Flat Pliers is repeated at the top of pg. 70 where it replaces what should have been a photo of a pair of jeweler's pliers.
