Introduction: Fear less. Build more. -- Safety and gear -- The toolbox -- Essential skills -- Building projects.

This reference book is so comprehensive it's the only book you'll ever need to own to figure out how to build or fix anything. It features tool types, usage, projects, quick fixes, and other "how to" information, plus profiles of inspiring builder girls and women. Promoting self-sufficiency for young women so that they can change a tire or fix a running toilet without calling a male partner, family member, or professional to assist, this guide will also instill in young women a long personal relationship with creativity. Girls, get in touch with your inner badass, and get building! Fear less. Build more.

Bingaman-Burt, Kate, 1977-
