This splendid book describes and illustrates in detail how the Shakers designed, built, and finished their furniture and household articles. With its detailed text as well as over 250 photographs and measured drawings for over 80 classic pieces, it offers woodworkers and furniture enthusiasts a practical guide to the essentials of replicating a broad range of designs long admired for their sturdy practicality and their spare, elegant beauty.
The book first chronicles and describes the Shaker movement and the Shaker way of living, worshiping, and working. It then explores the Shaker approach to furniture design (from chests and chairs to boxes and baskets), construction (including all joinery techniques), and finishing (including recipes for finishes).
Three important sections of the book depict dozens of classic Shaker designs, complete with measured drawings. The designs include Shaker "smallcraft" such as a cutting board, scoop, candle sconce, peg-leg footstool and towel rack; more substantial "utility designs" such as a dough bin, cradle, dry sink, butcher block, and bonnet box; and furniture classics such as a Harvard trestle table, maple chair, lap desk, sewing chest, rocking chair, bed, settee and chest of drawers -- each in its own distinctive way defining the simple, practical grace of Shaker design.

Can be tossed around indoors
Size: Large (Pack of 1), Style: Stick Large
Flexible stick toy. Dogs enjoy carrying it around. Squeaks. We have had one for years. It is still in great shape but bought 2 more as I have 3 dogs and all enjoy them. I can toss this in the house.

Great fun & strong!!!
Size: Large (Pack of 1), Style: Stick Large
These are the best sticks ever! Our dogs chew and slobber all over these for sometimes an hour at a time. They like the “give” texture when they chew it. Imagine an indestructible, gummy bear! Because of their softness, they don’t end up with sharp edges or texture, although they are sturdy, and very durable. We have had these for our two dogs for close to a month now and it is their go to indoor to stick. The gentle squeak is not loud and obnoxious, but a playful sound that has them coming back for more with each chomp! If you love your dogs, this is the cheese stick for them. He’s also make an excellent fetch stick as they can go inside or outside. They wash off easily with water. This is a great investment, especially if you’ve been wasting your money replacing toys for strong jawed dogs!

New favorite toy!
I’ve bought this toy in the past and it lasted a long time. Yes, eventually Tigger did tear it apart (took a very long time) which is why I ordered him a new one. I love that this toy is perfect size for my 10lb Maltipoo. It’s not super hard like other ones I’ve bought in the past. Easy to wash once too much slobber has gotten on it. Just wash it by hand. It squeaks a lot which just takes getting used to if you love your pup having fun with it lol.
