4.5
I honestly wasn’t going to buy this book because I thought it would be very very beginner- like “this is a hammer” beginner. There’s quiet a few things in this book that I Id never attempt until reading it. I have not yet attempted those projects, like fixing siding, but considering what ANY repair in a house cost, its fairly comprehensive and easy to follow. I may be updating this post months from now with explicatives (this is how most of my DIY projects turn out), but I like having an actual book- not weeding through YouTube videos that may/may not be correct and trying to find a website to show me simple things. I do wish there was more on using more complex power tools- tips/tricks, as it would be suitable for this book, and more on carpentry, but it’s still worth 5 stars.
