Preservative Treatment of Wood Poles

This book contains a classic article on treating wooden poles with preservative finishes, and includes information on tools, technique, common problems, and other related aspects. With simple directions and detailed illustrations, this volume constitutes a must-read for those with an interest in the subject, and would make for a useful addition to collections of woodworking literature. Contents include: "e;Present Status of Pole Preservation in Indiana"e;, "e;Causes and Prevention of Deterioration of Poles"e;, "e;Preservatives for Pole Timber"e;, "e;Methods of Treating Poles"e;, "e;Economics of Pole Treatment"e;, "e;Preservation of Poles already in Service"e;, "e;Inspections of Treated and Untreated Poles"e;, etc. Many vintage books such as this are becoming increasingly rare and expensive. We are republishing this volume now in an affordable, high-quality edition complete with a specially commissioned new introduction on wood finishing.
