Tons of valuable information based on years of experience. Very valuable to the first time cabinet builder. Presents numerous details that most beginners will encounter, but have not thought about.
Steve was incredibly helpful in answering my many questions!!! He really took the time to explain the intricate details for someone pretty new to wood working. I also enjoyed the videos which gave me a chance to see the techniques in action!
