"By Hammer and Hand All Things Do Stand"
Last week we talked about John Ruskin's quotation found in this set of books. What other gems can we discover in these four+ volumes?
Authors Frank D. Graham and Thomas J. Emery put together "A Practical Illustrated Trade Assistant on Modern Construction For Carpenters-Joiners, Builders-Mechanics, and all Wood Workers."
Illustrations, diagrams, charts, graphs, and pictures enhance the how-to explanations "in practical, concise language" that include how to figure and calculate various jobs.
Publisher Theo. Audel Co. seemed to do well with this series as it was copyrighted in 1929, 1933, 1945 and reprinted in 1948.
Whether you are a professional or a DIYer, you can find good information and interesting facts between the covers of these little black books.
Volume 1: Tools - Steel - Square Saw Filing - Joinery - Furniture
Volume 2: Builders Mathematics - Drawing Plans - Specifications - Estimating
Volume 3: House and Roof Framing - Laying Out - Foundations
Volume 4: Doors - Windows -Stair Building - Mill Work - Painting
We invite you to stop by and give Audel's guides a look-through. You may learn something that will make your next project go a little smoother.
