The Big Book of Maker Skills: Tools & Techniques for Building Great Tech Projects Review: Good, broad coverage for beginners and experienced DIYers and makers. - I bought this as a gift for a women who is branching out from traditional artwork to explore various creative opportunities. She is not afraid of tools but is not well experienced. I feared this would insult her intelligence (she has some class and professional training with tools) but changed my mind after seeing the practical advice from the author, Chris Hackett. This is a book that even many experienced DIYers, tinkers, and makers will find useful for its advice about some tools one might be hesitant to blindly purchase (like welders). Nice art layout, well organized (including practical advice on first aid -- like when to get stitches), broad in its coverage. I have a ton of DIY books, from basic carpentry to computer hacking. This book will serve many folks looking for early insight about methods and tools while beginning a project. Review: great beginner book with lots of pictures - Lots of pictures ! Thats great . Absolute a good beginner book for aspiring tinkerer , fixers, hobbyists and gadgetpeople . ## Images ![The Big Book of Maker Skills: Tools & Techniques for Building Great Tech Projects - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/81plnDijq2L.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Good, broad coverage for beginners and experienced DIYers and makers. *by A***R on October 23, 2017* I bought this as a gift for a women who is branching out from traditional artwork to explore various creative opportunities.

Thats great . Absolute a good beginner book for aspiring tinkerer , fixers, hobbyists and gadgetpeople . ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Covers far more skills I didn't know, than I knew. *by L***S on January 31, 2015* This was a good book for me. I've dabbled in electronics, electrical, woodworking, and more, a typical handyman and DIYer, and I have several books on home “DIY” and maintenance, so I was familiar with many of the skills covered by this book. So while the skills covered by this book have some overlap with those, overall it supplements them very nicely. I found this book covered far more skills I didn't know, than I knew. My first thought upon looking through the book was 'this is what I needed back in school for my science projects." In particular the skills in this book on working with metal (forming and welding) and plastic will be valuable to me. I was also impressed with the coverage of the tools required for the skills covered. I also like the clarity of the articles and pictures. I'm impressed with it enough, that I'm going to get a copy of this for my adult son. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.it/products/108729359-the-big-book-of-maker-skills-tools-and-techniques-building](https://www.desertcart.it/products/108729359-the-big-book-of-maker-skills-tools-and-techniques-building) --- *Product available on Desertcart Italy* *Store origin: IT* *Last updated: 2026-05-14*
