Average customer review:Product Description
Trim Complete covers those important finishing touches that give a house a one-of-a-kind personality: trim and modling. An expert carpenter, Greg Kossow presents a vibrantly visual guide that details every possible project, from the most basic baseboards, to the most complicated casings. He tackles real-world situations with authoritative advice, never failing to address how to solve problems when things do go wrong. The book's ingenious design makes it a snap to find the relevant information for each project and Kossow includes a crystal-clear table of contents. Plus, unlike most other books that only deal with basic carptnetry, Trim Complete includes hard-to-find advice on complex crown molding and making custom modling.

lots of pics and items covered
This is my second trim book i bought so far. The other was a stanley book. Im a home owner with good carpentry knowledge. I bought this book to learn the proper way to do trim work and not the harry homeowner piece together rig job. I rate this book 3.5 stars but there was no option for that. The book has lots of pics and covers a good ammount of tasks. I found the details to be confusing to understand. It will get you thru the job but you will have to read the material in the book a few times first to fully grasp the technique. I found the stanley book more user friendly and easier to understand. This book covers more tasks than the stanley book. I would personally recommend the stanley book over this one but it cant hurt to read a few books on trim work.
Best book on trim
Previous reviewers are correct in describing this book as the best on the subject of trim work. I have many Taunton publishing books and as usual the photography is excellent! I have looked at other trim books and usually they are full of 'line' drawings. There is nothing like a great pic to illustrate how a project is being done.
Excellent~!!!
Excellent book. Lots of photos and step by step instructions. Highly recommended for weekend carpenter like me.
