Carnet Entrainement Lafay Pdf here. By Anonymous, Christopher Schwarz and Joel Moskowitz 'The Joiner and Cabinet Maker' is a huge book – with more than 370 pages of detailed handtool instruction, including many processes that have not been covered before in the early woodworking literature. Though this sounds impossible, please read on. Let's begin in 1839.
In that year, an English publisher issued a small book on woodworking that has – until now – escaped detection by scholars, historians and woodworkers. Titled 'The Joiner and Cabinet Maker,' this short book was written by an anonymous tradesman and tells the fictional tale of Thomas, a lad of 13 or 14 who is apprenticed to a rural shop that builds everything from built-ins to more elaborate veneered casework. The book was written to guide young people who might be considering a life in the joinery or cabinetmaking trades, and every page is filled with surprises. Unlike other woodworking books of the time, 'The Joiner and Cabinet Maker' focuses on how apprentices can obtain the basic skills needed to work in a hand-tool shop. It begins with Thomas tending the fire to keep the hide glue warm, and it details how he learns stock preparation, many forms of joinery and casework construction.
It ends with Thomas building a veneered mahogany chest of drawers that is French polished. However, this is not a book for children. It is a book for anyone exploring hand-tool woodworking. Thanks to this book, we can stop guessing at how some operations were performed by hand and read first-hand how joints were cut and casework was assembled in one rural England shop. Even more delightful is that Thomas builds three projects during the course of his journey in the book, and there is enough detail in the text and illustrations to re-create these three projects just as they were built in 1839.
Here's what you'll find in our expanded edition of this book: • A historical snapshot of early 19th-century England. Moskowitz, a book collector and avid history buff, explains what England was like at the time this book was written, including the state of the labor force and woodworking technology. This dip into the historical record will expand your enjoyment of Thomas's tale. • The complete text of 'The Joiner and Cabinet Maker,' unabridged and unaltered. We present every word of the 1839 original (plus a chapter on so-called 'modern tools' added in a later edition), with footnotes from Moskowitz that will help you understand the significance of the story.
• Chapters on the construction of the three projects from 'The Joiner and Cabinet Maker.' Schwarz built all three projects – a Packing Box, a dovetailed Schoolbox and a Chest of Drawers – using hand tools. The construction chapters in this new edition of 'The Joiner and Cabinet Maker' show the operations in the book, explain details on construction and discuss the hand-tool methods that have arisen since this book was originally published. • Complete construction drawings. Lost Art Press drafted all three projects in SketchUp to create detailed drawings and cutting lists for the modern woodworker. This will save you hours of decoding the construction information offered in 'The Joiner and Cabinet Maker.' Like all Lost Art Press books, 'The Joiner and Cabinet Maker' is hardbound, sewn, printed on quality paper and made entirely in the United States.
