    • 5/5
      Nice book got some good ideas for upcycling projects and nice illustrations/photos
    • 5/5
      I'm not a review kinda person but this book was awesome, from the step by step directions to the pictures and the tips were a bonus. I love it. Most pallet / upcycle books with diy info is so bad my kids don't even wanna do them. These projects were actually nice, I already started 1 and wanna do every single one in here. GREAT BOOK
    • 3/5
      Most projects are complicated and ugly :-( not worthy time
    • 2/5
      Good enough for someone that is starting with woodworking and some nice ideas would come if you already have experience, but not a very good book.
    • 3/5
      As a how-to it looks pretty good but,while there are a couple of projects that might be good for inspiration, most of them are ugly and clunky-looking and don't seem to enhance the beauty of reclaimed wood. My thought as I looked through this book was 7th grade wood sho or well-meaning Dad.
    • 1/5
      I Found The Projects not very useful and quiet Pointless. The Salvage Material Is not Your Everyday Find.Most of End Products Didnt Look Very Good. Very Little In The Way Of Usefull End Products projects
