I originally gave this book 4 stars, but have revised it to 5. The original 4 star rating was because none of the designs called out to me personally. On reflections, I've upgraded it to a 5 because the instructions are rock solid, written in a very clear and concise manner. Lots of good pictures and simple designs (which look more complex than they are).

A good solid book with nice designs which (in my opinion) will 'age' well.
