{"product_id":"2940012908728","title":"Wood Cutting Course","description":"PREFACE\u003cbr\u003eThis book is the outgrowth of problems given to high school pupils by the writers,\u003cbr\u003eand has been compiled in logical sequence. Stress is laid upon the proper use of\u003cbr\u003etools, and the problems are presented in such a way that each exercise, or project,\u003cbr\u003edepends somewhat on the one preceding. It is not the idea of the writers that all\u003cbr\u003eproblems shown should be made, but that the instructor select only such as will\u003cbr\u003egive the pupils enough preliminary work in the use of the tools to prepare them for\u003cbr\u003eother models following.\u003cbr\u003eThe related matter on the care of the lathe and tools, the grinding of chisels, the\u003cbr\u003epolishing of projects, and the specific directions and cautions for working out the\u003cbr\u003evarious exercises and projects with the drawings, make the book not only valuable\u003cbr\u003efor reference, but also as a class text to be studied in connection with the making of\u003cbr\u003eprojects. The drawings show exact dimensions and are tabulated in the upper right-\u003cbr\u003ehand corner in such a way that they may be used in a filing case if desired. At least\u003cbr\u003etwo designs are shown for each model, and these may be used as suggestions from\u003cbr\u003ewhich students, with the aid of the instructor, may work out their own designs.\u003cbr\u003eThe book has been divided into two parts: (A) Spindle Turning, and (B) Face-Plate\u003cbr\u003eTurning. The same order is followed in each part; the related information is\u003cbr\u003esupplied where required as the pupil progresses.\u003cbr\u003ePart A takes up the following: (I) Exercises; (II) Models, involving the same tool\u003cbr\u003eprocesses, only in a somewhat different degree; (III) Oval Turning, explaining the\u003cbr\u003euse of two centers; (IV) Duplicate Turning, where identical pieces are turned.\u003cbr\u003ePart B is arranged as follows: (I) Exercises; (II) Models, which are an application\u003cbr\u003eof cuts in exercises that involve only face-plate work; (III) Models, which require\u003cbr\u003echucking; (IV) Assembling Exercises, involving spindle turning, face-plate work\u003cbr\u003eand chucking; (V) Spiral Turning, showing the method of turning a spiral on the\u003cbr\u003elathe.\u003cbr\u003eThe ultimate aim of this book is to give, through the exercises and problems, a\u003cbr\u003ethorough understanding of the principles of wood turning by gradually developing\u003cbr\u003ethe confidence of the pupil in the complete control of his tools, at the same time\u003cbr\u003esuggesting harmonious lines in design which will lead to other ideas in designing\u003cbr\u003eproblems.","brand":"unique5stardeals","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47081941434608,"sku":"2940012908728","price":4.97,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/2940012908728_p0.jpg?v=1763574355","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/2940012908728","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
