Re: Wood Working Library
Wow, that is an excellent resource. Some very old text, but I am sure the information is still quite valid.
It would be good to add to our Link Library.
Thanks Mike

Honestly Honey, that will cost around $100 $150 $200, and I need a few more tools.

Re: Wood Working Library
Shoot, I just like reading old titles like that. Just so how I can see some things never change.
Thanks, Mike.

Re: Wood Working Library
Thanks Mike, wealth of info there. I was particularly fascinated by the books on pattern making for castings. Amazing how things were done before CNC machining became the norm.
