The first half of the kzitem.infoUgkx3ICSK6nSknaL_45CU2NmFSoXjarGMDiJ book is everything about wood: types, tools, finishes, setting up shop etc. The second half is all about doing projects for inside and outside of the home. The color pictures are helpful. After reading a dozen of these types of books, this is probably the best overall (layout, color photos, plans). Only detraction is that many of the projects use a table saw/router/planer, which are usually expensive and take up space, so the plans are less friendly to newcomers and the budget conscious. But I know I can use a drill, circular saw or a jigsaw to make the projects.

I used basic tools on this project just to show it can be done with an electric drill and a handsaw. Ideally, it would be better to have an electric saw such as a circular saw for this for doing this project. Check out my other videos for tools that I’ve used.

Not a bad gate with the tools you used. Personally I would of had two up rights and mortised the frame joints just for more strength and made it the same height as the fence so it’s all inline. But still a great job good effort.
