When Jimmy Carter was a young boy, he would help break the land with a mule-drawing plow, a slow and tedious work. "I enjoyed a sense of accomplishment and self-satisfaction, knowing that I had left behind me the visible proof of my work," says Carter. Even today, he still experiences similar emotions while working in his woodshop.

The periods of drudgery that come with the repetitive use of tools such as chisels, drawknives, spokeshaves, planes, rasps, scrapers, sandpaper, or paint brushes fade into relative insignificance when Carter can examine the result of his labor. The excitement of an original design, the meticulous detail of precise measurements, the characteristics of the wood, the heft and beauty of the hand tools are all positive aspects of crafting a piece of furniture.

The basic purpose of this book is to show that even those with limited talent can develop adequate skills to produce worthwhile things. The entire process, from learning to creating, can be enjoyable. There is no limit to the skill that woodworkers can seek.

Carter's experiences in his youth and his current woodworking activities highlight the satisfaction and self-fulfillment that can be found in working with one's hands. The visible proof of his labor, whether it be the furrows in the land or the crafted furniture, provides a sense of accomplishment that transcends the tedious nature of the work itself.

The book aims to encourage readers, regardless of their natural talent, to explore the world of woodworking. It suggests that the journey of learning and creating can be inherently enjoyable, and that the pursuit of skill in this craft has no limits. The emphasis is on the intrinsic rewards of the process, rather than the end product alone.

Through Carter's personal anecdotes and the book's message, readers are invited to consider the deeper satisfaction that can be found in manual labor and the creation of tangible objects. The book promotes the idea that the development of skills, even in those with modest abilities, can lead to a fulfilling and rewarding experience.
