Book Description
Excerpt from Woodworking Machinery Its Rise, Progress, and Construction With Hints on the Management of Saw Mills and the Economical Conversion of Timber: A Companion Volume to Saw Mills, Their Arrangement and Management Content if hence th' unlearn'd their wants may view, The learn'd reflect on what before they knew. - Pope. The following pages, written in the spare hours of a busy life attempt to give an account of the rise and progress of what is now in this country an important branch of engineering. Although wood is employed in the constructive arts more largely than any other substance its conversion by machinery is of comparatively modem origin, and therefore very few books or treatises have been written on the subject. The aim of the Author has been to combine, as far as possible, the historical with the practical. In the first portion of the book, in addition to notes on design and construction, the names of the chief inventors and pioneers in woodworking machinery will be found; the latter part of the work is devoted entirely to practical and technical details. The illustrations are confined to the designs of English, French, and American engineers, the machines constructed by other nations being, as a rule, based on these models. The adaptation of machinery to common uses is, without doubt, increasingly necessary to the commercial prosperity and progress of a nation, and has been exemplified by the success of American competition in some branches of manufacture.
