Recommended for all Model Railroaders

Whether you are an novice or expert this book covers the fundamentals to ther complexities of wood working for model railroad applications.
Very well presentedin simple language and with very nice coverage on the subject, has adequate photos and good detail.

My Opinion Of This Book

In simple terms, I could not have asked for a more easy to understand compilation of explanations and pictures!! As well as being highly detailed it is very easy to understand for the beginner, the intermediate, as well as the more highly sophisticated model railroad builder, which in my opinion covers all three bases in one book. I highly recommend "Basic Model Railroad Benchwork" to anyone who is considering starting to build a model railroad layout, or to the the builder who is thinking of extending his current layout, or the person who would like to become involved into the more serious layout techniques such as adding a Helix to your current layout. All of the methods are well documented in words and pictures within this book.

A Firm Foundation

One of the most important parts of a reliable model railroad is the unseen benchwork that underlies it. This book is an excellent introduction into how that benchwork is built. It covers several different styles and shows how they can be integrated together, each doing what it does best.

It is a good introduction and all that most people will ever need but I like Linn Wescott's book on the same subject better.
