[Handwork in Wood by William Noyes]@TWC D-Link bookHandwork in Wood CHAPTER VIII 1/62
CHAPTER VIII. TYPES OF WOODEN STRUCTURES. The articles suitable to be made in wood with hand tools may for convenience be divided into four general classes: (1) Unjoined pieces; (2) board structures; (3) panel structures; (4) framed structures.
A few illustrations of each class are given below. (1) SIMPLE OR UNJOINED PIECES Of these there are a number that are advantageous for the learning of tool processes; at the same time they give opportunity for expression in design, and when finished are of use. Examples are: key-boards, chiseling-boards, bread-boards, sleeve-boards, ironing-boards, coat- and skirt-hangers, and gouged trays.
Some of these are so simple as to include hardly any process but planing, directions for which are given above, p.
72. [Illustration: Fig.270.
Pen-Tray.] Where there is more than one process involved, the order of procedure is of importance.
