EDITORIAL FOREWORD
To be successful in woodwork construction the possession of two secrets
is essential--to know the right joint to use, and to know how to make
that joint in the right way. The woodwork structure or the piece of
cabinet-work that endures is the one on which skilful hands have combined
to carry out what the constructive mind planned. And it is just here that
the present Volume will help, not alone the beginner who wishes
preliminary instruction, but also the expert who desires guidance over
ground hitherto unexplored by him.
In the preparation of this new edition the Publishers have secured the
services of Mr. William Fairham, by whom the chapters have been carefully
revised and re-illustrated. Although intended for the practical man, and
not professing to be a graded course of "educational woodwork," the
Volume is one which Handicraft Instructors will find of the greatest
value in conducting woodwork classes. No book hitherto published contains
such a variety of illustrations of joints, almost all of which will form
suitable exercises of practical educational importance in a woodworking
course.
