My nephew works for a construction company that is rebuilding a high school building. He was working in the shop area found this book and brought it to me last night. It appears to have been written in 1916.  I’ve only been able to leaf through it so far, but it’s very interesting how things haven’t changed that much. Planners, joinery, bandsaw etc are all very much the same as we would do today. 

 

 

 

I love these old books Gordon, thanks for sharing! You are right, not much has changed!
