This vintage book contains a complete guide to blacksmithing and steel working, with information on all aspects ranging from the correct use of tools and shop equipment to repairing cogs and making a gun. Highly accessible and profusely illustrated, this timeless handbook will be of utility to novice metalworkers and would make for a worthy addition to collections of allied literature. Contents include: ‘The Smith’, ‘There are Smiths and Smiths’, ‘Intemperance’, ‘Incompetency’, ‘Religion’, ‘A Modern Guild’, ‘Taxation Will Never Raise the Standard of a Mechanic’, ‘Literature’, ‘The Shop’, ‘The Anvil’, ‘Coal Box’, ‘Tool Tables’, ‘The Hammer’, ‘The Sledge’, ‘How to Make a Hammer’, et cetera.

We are republishing this volume now in an affordable, modern edition complete with a specially commissioned new introduction on metal work.
