Get the right edition!, October 14, 2000

Be careful that you do not get the first printing of the book, which contained a great many errors in dimensions and drawings. This happened through a set of unfortunate circumstances that I should have guaranteed against. But, most of the first printing was destroyed and a corrected second printing was put out by the publisher with my full help and cooperation. When you get a copy of this book, check in the front cover to see if it is the first or second printing. If it is the first, don't use it- send it back and ask for a second printing.

The second printing has accurate instructions, drawings and dimensions for building a variety of attractive display cases to grace your living room. As well, the book has extensive instructions on different techniques for making wood frames to put glass into. The emphasis in the book is on adapting a given design to dimensions and techniques that work for you.

My deepest apologies to anyone unlucky enough to have gotten the first printing. For the record, I worked long and hard to correct the book and put it in the state of accuracy in which it now stands.
