Blacksmith Shop Practice

This vintage book contains a collection of blacksmithing articles that include information on designing and maintaining a workshop, making hooks and chains, welding, maintaining equipment, and much more. These timeless articles contain a wealth of useful information and helpful tips that would be of considerable utility to modern blacksmiths. Contents include: "e;Arrangement and Equipment of a Model Blacksmith Shop"e;, "e;Foundations and Walls"e;, "e;Forge Space and Arrangement"e;, "e;Arrangement of Steam- and Belt-driven Hammers"e;, "e;Location of Blowers, Conduits and Piping"e;, "e;Furnaces, Tool Racks, Hammer Foundations and Piping"e;, "e;Foreman's Office, Wash Room, Lockers, etc."e;, et cetera. Many vintage books such as this are increasingly scarce and expensive. We are republishing this volume now in an affordable, modern edition complete with a specially commissioned new introduction on metal work. First published around 1910.
