Author Description

Outdoor construction projects have never been easier than with the expert advice of master woodworker Percy Blandford. In this well-illustrated guide, Blandford presents 18 complete building plans for do-it-yourselfers who want to add playhouses, utility buildings, sheds, pet and livestock shelters, greenhouses, gazebos, sun lounges, or workshops to their properties. Complementing these projects, Playhouses, Gazebos and Sheds covers peripheral, but nonetheless important, details such as making doors and windows, nesting boxes, barn doors, and gardening accessories. Fun and unusual projects are also included: a child's fort, a folding playhouse, a bicycle shed, and a lean-to carport. Clear illustrations and straightforward writing guides the reader step-by-step through each project.
