Preface

To avoid confusion, the subject herein treated is considered in three divisions. 

Part I. contains the essential facts concerning common bench tools for wood; it describes their action, explains their adjustments, and shows how they can be kept in order.

Part II. presents a course of practice by which ability to use the tools may be acquired.

Part III. discuses such forms and adaptation of joints as will meet the requirements of ordinary construction.
