Woodwork Joints.How they are Set Out, How Made and Where Used.

I came across these whilst browsing and thought they might be of interest, there are sure to be others.

I couldn't find it either. I assume that no one has digitised it yet. However, here are a couple of other things I just this minute came across.

http://books.google.com/books?id=8dw...worker&f=false the Strelinger tool catalogue from 1897,

http://books.google.com/books?q=maga...afari&as_brr=1 American Woodworker magazine,


I'm sure that both google books and Project Gutenberg will bear further fruits.

Many Gutenberg titles are available in Internet Archive as PDF, eg Handwork in Wood
http://www.archive.org/details/handworkinwood00noyerich

these are a bit easier to store than html versions.
