NOTE: These books don't replace our site, of course. There is much more to our site than could be put into even 10 books! And a membership to our site (which costs next to nothing) is still a prerequisite to having your questions answered by Dave. For more info on our site membership click here.

To read our books, simply download the free Kindle software for your phone, computer or device. If you have a Kindle it is even easier!




Your source for building tips, woodworking & furniture plans, house plans and building advice directly from Dave...

Hi, I'm Dave Osborne. With over 50 years experience as a journeyman carpenter, foreman and contractor in heavy construction I enjoyed working with apprentices and sharing the tricks of the trade that others shared with me. Now I get emails from Members all over the world and we include many of my answers in our Free Monthly Newsletters. Some of my answers include drawings and instructions specific to a project, but may also answer your questions. I use correct construction terminology, so you can confidently inform your building supply dealers or contractors exactly what you need.
