The Carpentry for Gardeners series focusses on the specifics of building for outdoor and rough conditions. You’ll learn about suitable hardware and techniques for outdoor construction, along with tips and tricks for prolonging the life of the things you build.

It covers the fundamentals of tool use and techniques, including:

• Confidence in your ability to use the following tools correctly and safely – hand and power saws, drill drivers and measuring equipment.
