Hand tools + power tools = your best work yet

This article was originally posted on The Wood Whisperer.
Summary
The Wood Whisperer’s Marc Spagnuolo introduces Hybrid Woodworking, a book that blends the speed of power tools with the precision of hand tools to build better projects faster. It covers which machines handle the heavy lifting, essential hand tools for fine-tuning, efficient shop techniques, a hybrid milling system from rough stock to square, and real projects that apply the approach. Available as a signed paperback ($29) or PDF ($25), every copy includes three bonuses: a video on the top five planes, a hybrid woodworking seminar, and additional resources, with instant access.

How do you balance power tools and hand tools in your shop, and which tasks do you always prefer to do by hand?

For years, I’ve relied on a simple philosophy in my shop: use machines for the work they’re best at and hand tools where they make the biggest difference. That’s what Hybrid Woodworking is all about.

In this book, I’ll show you how to combine the efficiency of power tools with the precision and satisfaction of hand tools, so you can build better projects without spending unnecessary time at the bench.
