This vintage book contains a concise treatise on sheet metal work, being
a guide to the common problems encountered by those who are engaged in
it. Written in simple language and including short, clear explanations,
this volume would be ideal for young apprentices and novice metal
workers. Contents include: "Having a Given Circle, to Find the Side of
an Equivalent Square", "To Find the Area of a Circular Ring", "Diameters
and Circumferences of Circles", "A Short Method of Finding
Circumferences Without Figures", "Some Remarkable Facts About Circles",
"Scale of Hundredths", "Measuring Degrees on the Steel Square", 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 in 1910.
