Essential Woodworking Hand Tools | Paul Sellers

With Paul Sellers’ book he wants to pass on not just his knowledge of hand tools but his enjoyment of them too. Hand tool woodworking provides a direct connection to wood as a raw resource for creating. It allows you to create, in a small amount of space, lasting items of use and beauty. None of this is possible, however, without the tools themselves. This book is intended as an important link that will help you to make good choices in purchasing, sharpening, and beginning to use the tools that you need to build things from wood.

Glad you are promoting this book shamelessly. You should. It is worth every penny. Thanks Paul.

Mine's just arrived. It's a compilation of a lifetime of experience. If you watch Paul's videos, buy yourself his book - for your sake. It's a masterpiece.

Paul Sellers is the best source for learning woodworking - period. Thank you Paul for your hard work, dedication and continued sharing of your knowledge - it is appreciated by so many of us.

Well worth buying. Paul Sellers is an amazing woodwork teacher. From his instruction alone I’ve gone, in a few years, from not being able to sharpen a chisel to making furniture, tools, an electric guitar, garden gates and pretty much anything I desire.

If anyone is on the fence, let me push you over.... this book is awesome. I read it cover to cover and refer to it when I have questions about set up or sharpening or what to look for when buying something online. 👍👍

Was thinking of getting a file. Internet search brought up some stuff, but picked up Paul's book and there was a few detailed pages on files. Perfect

To add to those who have already sung the praises of this book, I add my agreement. It's a lovely distillation of all Mr Sellers work, presented in the same understandable way his videos are. What really shines through is his love and enthusiasm for the subject.

You are such a Gem! A prince among men! Thank you for sharing so unselfishly. Going to buy the book now!

I picked up woodworking about 18 months ago and in that time I've seen no other that loves woodworking like Paul. And he has taught me so much.

[pawelm]

I love the wood for long time, making my first steps in working it though. I bought my copy as a means of saying 'thank you' for the knowledge I acquired following Paul on youtube and on his websites. I've gone through the book several times, learning something every time. Now I wait for continuation, where I hope Paul would go 'beyond essentials'. I highly recommend the book for anyone interested in working wood with hand tools.

Thank you Paul and team Sellers
