It will benefit anyone who is building a workshop for the first time, or just wants to upgrade an existing operation. If you have had your lathe stuck in a corner of the garage for years, this is definitely the book for you. It explains all the essential requirements of the workshop environment: planning, heating and lighting, and condensation, plus health and safety factors. It then explains in detail the choice of various tools and equipment for differing tasks so the new workshop owner can avoid making unwise purchases. Even if you think your workshop is already complete, you'll discover eye-opening new information here.
