Average Rating:  out of 5 stars

Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - A box book first, inlay book second
Doug Stowe definitely knows his boxes. He's built thousands over the years. Anytime an expert like this decides to share his secrets, one should take the opportunity to acquire the knowledge.
The focus on "inlay" is a fuzzy one at best. Stowe talks in detail about how to make inlay strips or panels and for that information alone, this book is worth its price. A true artist should know how every little bit of his/her works are put together. Since inlay can be a beautiful enhancer to wood projects, ... Read More



Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Creating Beautiful Boxes With Inlay Techniques
Good tips and beautiful boxes. The directions are sufficient to be able to make the boxes in the book.



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Great learning tool
The Inlay book is an invaluable resource for beginning woodworkers. Very informative and well written. The author demonstrates methods for using pre-made inlays, as well as providing instructions for making your own inlays. I highly recommend the book. I have all of Doug Stowe's books on box making and enjoy them all.



Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - I shudder to think!
The book has some really interesting ideas for boxes. It is definitely worth getting for that reason alone.

This is not a good book for an inexperienced woodworker. Many of the router table techniques shown are incredibly dangerous---I can't believe the author has gotten away with doing things the way he does without losing a few fingers along the way. I shudder to think what might happen to a new woodworker who tries these techniques.

The projects described are somewhat incomplete ... Read More



Rating: 2 out of 5 stars - Not as in-depth as I hoped
I bought this book hoping to cull some ideas for an idea I have for a box with inlay. However, this book is just straight ahead projects. The book does cover other things, like hand made dove tail joints, and making wood inlay - but they weren't as in-depth as I was hoping. If you have a shop full of various power tools and chisels and saws, etc - this book is for you. If you're looking for ideas on box designs/construction, and have a limited set of tools - I wouldn't recommend this one.
