Written for teachers of woodwork but useful to any amateur, the book follows timber from the logging camp and sawmill through seasoning to the bench, then covers hand tools, nails, screws and glues, shop equipment, the common joints, the principles of joinery and wood finishing. Drawings by Anna Gausmann Noyes illustrate nearly every process.
A thorough early twentieth-century account of traditional woodworking, valuable to hand-tool enthusiasts and historians of craft alike. Download the free EPUB.
