Home Mechanic's Workshop Companion

Whilst the greatest effort has been made to ensure the quality of this text, due to the historical nature of this content, in some rare cases there may be minor issues with legibility. For a number of years past, the author has derived considerable pleasure and has spent a portion of his spare time profitably in a small workshop located in his home. He has been very much interested in trying out many hints and kinks that have appeared in the current issues of the mechanical periodicals, and has kept a note book and made sketches of the many devices constructed that have proven useful about the home and shop. The most practical and useful of the numerous sug gestions tried have been grouped under chapter head ings to make for logical presentation and easy refer ence, and the many devices illustrated and described cannot fail to be helpful and suggestive to men of mechanical bent.
