Good Clean Fun: Misadventures in Sawdust at Offerman Woodshop
Description
After two New York Times bestsellers, Nick Offerman—woodworker, actor,
comedian, and co-host of NBC’s crafting competition series Making It—returns
with the subject for which he’s known best—his incredible real-life woodshop.
Nestled among the glitz and glitter of Tinseltown is a testament to American
elbow grease and an honest-to-god hard day’s work: Offerman Woodshop.
Captained by hirsute woodworker, actor, comedian, and writer Nick Offerman,
the shop produces not only fine handcrafted furniture, but also fun
stuff—kazoos, baseball bats, ukuleles, mustache combs, even cedar-strip
canoes. Now Nick and his ragtag crew of champions want to share their
experience of working at the Woodshop, tell you all about their passion for
the discipline of woodworking, and teach you how to make a handful of their
most popular projects along the way. This book takes readers behind the scenes
of the woodshop, both inspiring and teaching them to make their own projects
and besotting them with the infectious spirit behind the shop and its
complement of dusty wood-elves. In these pages you will find a variety of
projects for every skill level, with personal, easy-to-follow instructions by
the OWS woodworkers themselves; and, what’s more, this tutelage is augmented
by mouth-watering color photos (Nick calls it “wood porn”). You will also find
writings by Nick, offering recipes for both comestibles and mirth, humorous
essays, odes to his own woodworking heroes, insights into the ethos of
woodworking in modern America, and other assorted tomfoolery. Whether you’ve
been working in your own shop for years, or if holding this stack of
compressed wood pulp is as close as you’ve ever come to milling lumber, or
even if you just love Nick Offerman’s brand of bucolic yet worldly wisdom,
you’ll find Good Clean Fun full of useful, illuminating, and entertaining
information. Read more
