I seen a sectional called a jigsaw puzzle at a JC Penny home store about a year ago. The color of it was red. I just now started furniture shopping again and I have only found that sectional at one furniture store but the only had two colors. No red I was wondering if anyone knew who the maufacturer of these sectionals are and if I can find one in red or black color anywhere.

I want them for inside my house, not out. I have searched in a lot of places but with no luck. I am learning woodworking and would love to try this. I appreciate any help on the matter. Thanks!

My friend wants to get into building furniture/woodworking and I thought I would buy him a book on the subject for Christmas, but there is so many books to sift through. I don’t want a book from the 70’s or 80’s; I want something that has modern pieces and a modern take on the subject, and definitely geared towards a beginner. Anyone know of any that they can recommend?

Well, I want to make a lighthouse for my mom to put in the backyard. I’ve found many woodworking plans to make this, but they all cost money.
I know it’s hard to find free plans, but if you know/have any, it would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks a lot!

I had a catalog a few years ago very thick and detailed that had all of this, but do not remember the name of the supplier.
