Woodworking and math are as closely connected as a tight-fitting dovetail, which makes Practical Shop Math: Simple Solutions to Workshop Fractions, Formulas and Geometric Shapes an invaluable guide. Start a woodworking project, and the numbers start flying around like sawdust. You start by measuring the thickness, width, and length of various boards and the next thing you know you’ve got a gaggle of fractions that need to be converted, added, subtracted, multiplied and divided. Not to mention the geometry of curves and triangles. All of this can be tricky stuff for many woodworkers, especially if it’s been a while since you’ve had math class. But that does matter, because this book is the perfect book for anyone looking to improve their math skills. Softcover, 198 pages, ISBN 978-1-940611-63-1.
