DESCRIPTION:
This book makes possible the accurate geometrical solution of all problems of pattern development normally encountered, by giving examples arranged according to a systematic plan which progressively illustrates the underlying principles. In the five â coursesâ into which the book is divided, the three basic methods of Radial Line, Parallel Line and Triangulation are applied in more and more complex examples, culminating in the solution of difficult problems of pipe intersection, twisted surfaces and spiral chutes. Each stage in the solution of the problem is clearly explained and shown in detailed drawings, and the superiority of the accurate geometrical method, in terms of time and material saved, is effectively demonstrated. All sheet metal workers will find this book invaluable.
A Work of Art Mark A. Kingston I'm rather surprized that this book has not been reviewed but then maybe there aren't many sheetmetal workers looking for these books these days or maybe they just don't write reviews. I say that there probably aren't many looking for these books because most of what is in these books is now done with a CNC operated Laser cutter, Plasma cutter or maybe a Turret Punch. All you have to do is load some dimensions into a program and it magically does it all for you. If however you work in a shop without the requisite machine and computer or at home then this is the book for you.Dickason wrote this book back in the days whe. "An excellent reference book for trades particularly in the steel industry" according to Darren. An excellent reference book for trades particularly in the steel industry. Indispensable and information to return to time and time again. Five Stars osamu arima Thank you good book.
