This splendid book describes and illustrates in detail how the Shakers designed, built, and finished their furniture and household articles. With its detailed text as well as over 250 photographs and measured drawings for over 80 classic pieces, it offers woodworkers and furniture enthusiasts a practical guide to the essentials of replicating a broad range of designs long admired for their sturdy practicality and their spare, elegant beauty.
The book first chronicles and describes the Shaker movement and the Shaker way of living, worshiping, and working. It then explores the Shaker approach to furniture design (from chests and chairs to boxes and baskets), construction (including all joinery techniques), and finishing (including recipes for finishes).
Three important sections of the book depict dozens of classic Shaker designs, complete with measured drawings. The designs include Shaker "smallcraft" such as a cutting board, scoop, candle sconce, peg-leg footstool and towel rack; more substantial "utility designs" such as a dough bin, cradle, dry sink, butcher block, and bonnet box; and furniture classics such as a Harvard trestle table, maple chair, lap desk, sewing chest, rocking chair, bed, settee and chest of drawers -- each in its own distinctive way defining the simple, practical grace of Shaker design.

Melatonin by Superior Source
Size: 100 Count (Pack of 1), Style: Melatonin 1mg
I've bought this melatonin repeatedly for years. It works gently and naturally to help me drift off to sleep and wake rested and ready for the day. I always get the smallest dose 1 mg

So far it does help me with becoming drowsy for sleep
Size: 100 Count (Pack of 1), Style: Melatonin 1mg
So far this melatonin helps with making me drowsy, but I still take 1/2 a prescribed sleeping pill with it. Normally, within a half hour I am sleepy. I have not tried taking it by itself yet. I am a petite build, so I think my size factors in to how well it works for me. Flavor is okay. Easy to take melting it under my tongue. Price is okay. I like that it is sublingual and limited added ingredients. I don't usually take chamomile due to being sensitive to it in the past, but seems to be okay in this pill. It also seems to help me with staying asleep for a longer period of time.

My favorite Melatonin supplement
Size: 100 Count (Pack of 1), Style: Melatonin 1mg
I have used this for a few months and really like it. I had previously used a spray that for some reason had added B6 (>2000% RDA) and I developed toxic levels of Vitamin B6 so had to switch. I love that this doesn't have any added garbage including no added flavors, artificial sweeteners or artificial dyes. The taste is fine. It's not candy and isn't supposed to taste like candy. It is just a bland taste that I hardly notice. Dissolves quickly and easily. Love it.
