About this deal

Modern practical joinery / a comprehensive treatise on the practice of joiner's work by hand and machine for the use of workmen, builders, machinists, and architects. And don't even think that the contents page will help: it's buried in there somewhere, but it won't correspond to any page. Each project is accompanied by clear illustrations and step-by-step instructions, making it easy for readers to follow along and create their own pieces. An Original Leather is being used for binding this book with Golden Leaf Printing and designing on Spine, front and Back of the book with edge gilding. s Work By Hand And Machine (1908) is an invaluable resource for anyone interested in the art of joinery, whether they are a beginner or an experienced woodworker.

Ellis begins by discussing the tools and materials required for joinery, including saws, chisels, planes, and various types of wood.With an extensive glossary and index of terms to the rear, this is an impressive guide to the practicalities of carpentry, with sections dedicated to use of timber, use of the steel square, roof construction, excavation, and scaffolding. You can change your choices at any time by visiting Cookie preferences, as described in the Cookie notice. End-papers are darkened with previous owner's details at the front (Hector Thompson, Paradise Cottage, Scarborough). The book covers both traditional hand techniques and modern machine methods, making it a valuable resource for both novice and experienced woodworkers. If the original book was published in multiple volumes then this reprint is of only one volume, not the whole set.

While renovating our old house we were delighted to find online SRS Hardware’s TL 01 reproduction thumb latch to match our existing late 19 th century Babcock Lock window latch hardware. A very smart copy of the second edition of this extensive and practical early twentieth century guide to carpentry, illustrated throughout and with a wealth of folding plates.He then goes on to explain the basic principles of joinery, such as mortise and tenon joints, dovetail joints, and tongue and groove joints. No other book offers such a comprehensive and detailed account of how the craft of joinery should be done.

By using the Web site, you confirm that you have read, understood, and agreed to be bound by the Terms and Conditions. This book covers a range of aspects of joinery including stair building, handrailing, doors and paneling, windows and shutters. We eagerly await your feedback, hoping that you'll find it appealing and will generously share your thoughts and recommendations. Original edition was published in and this unique edition is Reprinted in 2009 with the help of original edition.The book also includes detailed instructions for building a wide range of joinery projects, from simple boxes and cabinets to more complex pieces such as staircases and doors. It has absolutely no value to any joiner in my opinion, as 1) it doesn't contain any illustrations 2) the typos are in abundance, it's like reading garbled nonsense. As this print on demand book is reprinted from a very old book, there could be some missing or flawed pages, but we always try to make the book as complete as possible.

He also discusses the role of the joiner in society and the importance of craftsmanship in an increasingly industrialized world. For anyone who likes woodwork or who works in joinery or for anyone who works on old buildings this is an essential reference work and contains illustrations that will be found nowhere else.The book was first published in 1903 so dont expect any fast fix methords, instaed the book is full of knolage of how proper joinery should be done to the highist standard posible using advanced skill and traditional methords. Great text, great drawings and great explanations to basic construction techniques, some you may never use but they are the building blocks to start with. The allure continues with Golden Leaf Printing that adds a touch of elegance, while Hand Embossing on the rounded spine lends an artistic flair. This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
