Synopsis
Excerpt from Tin, Sheet-Iron and Copper-Plate Worker: A Practical Workshop Companion, Containing Rules for Describing Various Kinds of Patterns Used by Tin, Sheet-Iron and Copper-Plate Workers; Practical Geometry; Mesuration of Surface and Solids; Tables of the Weights and Strengths of Metals and Other Mater
The portion treating on metallic alloys and solders has been entirely rewritten, so as to have a more systematic arrangement and to bring it abreast with the best modern practice in this interesting and important field. Experts have carefully gone over the recipes and tables to insure their accuracy.
In all the other departments new matter has been added and every effort has been made to render the entire work, in the future, if possible, even more useful to the tin, sheet-iron and copper-plate worker than in the past.
