Better still, it features 10 extra projects and beautiful brand-new colour photography.

The Ultimate Basket Book: A Cornucopia of Popular Designs to Make (Diy Network) Reviews

Before reading some of the poor reviews, I always thought of basket-weaving aficionados as being patient and maticulous individuals. That may still be the case, but it is obvious that some are VERY poor at reading comprehension. Amazon’s description of this book clearly states that it is a combination of her PREVIOUS two books PLUS ten extra patterns.
So, for anyone that has not read or does not own the two previous releases, then this is a fantastic and extremely instructional book. You cannot go wrong with purchasing this — Whether you are a beginner or an experienced basket weaver.

This book came highly recommended by my basket instructor. The directions are clear and accurate, the baskets vary from easy to advanced, and the techniques are illustrated with clear and accurate photos and drawings. This is the basket book to have!

Plumbing a House (For Pros By Pros)
This is the first of two books which aims to demystify the design and installation of plumbing a house. It covers primarily the “behind-the-wall” plumbing, up to the point where the plumbing fixtures are attached. Contents include: rough plumbing systems, including drain, waste and vent piping; fresh water supply and distribution; water-heating systems; fuel-gas piping; installation of pipes that serve plumbing fixtures and appliances in the home; and remodelling existing plumbing by joining new systems to old. The book also provides information and advice on all the tools required to do some, or all, of the rough plumbing covered.

Plumbing a House (For Pros By Pros) Reviews

After searching a few videos and visiting the local hardware store, I was frustrated at the lack of information available about the specifics of general plumbing. Plumbers must hate this book because it outlines in detail many of the tricks of the trade. I am building my own home and have obtained all of the information I need to perform the job in this book with the exception of the septic system. There are plenty of illustrations that cover everything from tool and material selection, to rough in plumbing and finish plumbing. The writer obviously knows a thing or two about plumbing, as I was able to avoid several pitfalls by following the advice in the book. This is hands down the only plumbing book you need, unless you need septic information, which this book does not cover at all.

I was very disappointed with this book because it really needs to be updated to include the latest, most common plumbing methods/materials such as the use of PEX tubing. The author does do a good job of explaining the whys and hows of working with the older stuff. But, almost noone uses old iron drain pipe any more and even the use of copper is becoming rare in residential construction. In my area of the country (Southeast), flexible PEX tubing for supply and PVC for waste is used almost exclusively. An update is needed.
