Tools needed:
Table saw, band saw, planer, lathe, clamps, and common woodturning tools.
The #31 series plans (plans that start with 31- ) are available in either paper or PDF download. This is a project plan that you can download immediately after your purchase. If you want the paper plan mailed to you, choose that option instead. PDF plans cheaper than the paper plans in this series plus you save the shipping cost and delivery time! This project plan has full color pages with scaled templates that you can print onto 8-1/2 x 11 inch paper. It will be just like you are reading the magazine article itself! All building instructions and finishing guidelines included.
