Although a box cooker is easy - many of the projects in this book only require basic carpentry skills, and some projects require no skills. On the other side about half require basic to moderate know how of things like plumbing, electrical and so on. I'd say about half the projects in the book are aimed at people with minimal skills and the other half are more advanced. It depends on how willing you are to try new things I think too. I never thought I could help build a house, yet I did. You learn. @Tinker 12 these aren’t the easiest projects – just a sampling.

When you mentioned the book, I thought it was referring to some type of piosoning in the home or something like that. But this is an interesting take.
