This is the one that I will come back to when we decide to actually finish our basement. There were detailed instructions (with pictures) of the start to finish process, including specifics for any project I can imagine (like whirlpool bathtubs, egress windows, or wet bars).

The information they had was great, it just didn't speak to my particular situation.

This is a great, quick informative read for any avid DIY-er. I especially enjoyed the step-by-step walkthroughs of a remodel at the end.
