Book synopsis

Low cost tools which can be made and repaired by carpenters using locally available materials make it possible for artisans to practice their trade without buying or replacing expensive imported equipment. The tool designs described deliberately reduce the metal component so that the tools can be made more easily by carpenters with no metalworking expertise.Squares, gauges, clamps and planes are among the tools whose construction is described and illustrated in detail in this book; tools which are equally suitable for use in large training institutions or in smaller workshops. There is useful guidance on maintenance and repair.This edition includes further modifications and improvements, additional repair techniques, as well as new tool designs. This is an invaluable addition to any workshop.
