This vintage book contains a classic guide to cabinetmaking, with a particular focus on finishing. Wood finishing is the process of refining or protecting wooden surfaces, particularly during the production of furniture. Contents include: "General Observations", "To Clean the Face of Soft Mahogany, of Other Porous Woods", "Another Way to Clean and Finish Mahogany Work", "To Darken Mahogany", "Gluing up and Veneering Card-table-tops, Secretary Fronts, &c", To Cut Steel Plates for Scrapers", etc. This volume will appeal to those with an interest in cabinetmaking, wood finishing, and carpentry in general. Many vintage books such as this are increasingly scarce and expensive. It is with this in mind that we are republishing this classic volume now in an affordable, modern, high-quality edition complete with a specially-commissioned new introduction on wood finishing.
