Henry Frowde, Hodder & Stoughton, 1920, [First Edition], lightly illustrated with technical line drawings, hardcover

“For a number of years past, the author has derived considerable pleasure and has spent a portion of his spare time profitably in a small workshop located in his home.  He has been very much interested in following many hints and ideas that have appeared in the current issues of the mechanical periodicals, and has kept a notebook and made sketches of the many devices constructed that have proved useful about the home and shop.
The most practical and useful of the numerous suggestions tried have been grouped under chapter headings to make for logical presentation and easy reference, and the many devices illustrated and described cannot fail to be helpful and suggestive to men of mechanical bent.”
