Summary
Details

Squares, gauges, clamps and planes are among the tools whose construction is described in detail in this book, along with useful guidance on the maintenance and repair of woodworking tools. These low-cost tools are suitable for use in large training institutions or small workshops and are designed to enable carpenters and joiners to practise their trade without the need for expensive factory-made tools. This revised second edition includes additional repair techniques as well as an appendix describing modifications, such as using a plywood sole plate on the plough plane or attaching a knob to the jack plane, and new designs, including a combination gauge, which have been devised in Zimbabwe and approved by the original author. An invaluable addition to any workshop.
