Part I. contains the essential facts concerning common bench tools for wood; it describes their action, explains their adjustments, and shows how they may be kept in order. Part II. presents a course of practice by which ability to use the tools may be acquired ;and Part III. discusses such forms and adaptations of joints as will meet the requirements of ordinary construction. It is not expected that the student will complete Part I. before entering upon Part II., or that he will finish Part II. before commencing Part III. He will find greater profit in using them together. For example, a shop exercise involving the chisel (P art II.) should be accompanied or preceded by a study of the chisel (P art I.) ;again, the various forms of mortise-and-tenon joints (P art III.) will be better understood and more easily remembered, if considered during the time when types of such joints are under construction in the shops (P art II.). In the writers experience with classes of students, one hour has been given to class-room work for every five hours given to shop work. By this apportionment, Parts I. and III. can be mastered in the class-room while Part II. is in progress in the shops.
