Machine Blacksmithing

This vintage book contains a detailed but concise guide to machine blacksmithing, with information on setting up and maintaining a blacksmith shop, the correct use of tools and equipment, and more. Although old, this volume contains a wealth of information that will be of considerable utility to modern blacksmiths and metalworkers, and would make for a useful addition to collections of related literature. Contents include: "e;System in the Blacksmith Shop"e;, "e;Tools for the Blacksmith Shop"e;, "e;Anvils and Forges"e;, "e;Power Hammers and Forging Appliances"e;, "e;The Steam Hammer and its Use"e;. 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. This book was first published in 1910.
