Excerpt from The Metal Worker Pattern Book: A Practical Treatise on the Art and Science of Pattern Cutting as Applied to Sheet Metal Work
The demand for a second edition of the "Metal Worker Pattern Book," the author feels, may be taken as conclusive evidence that his work has been found useful by those for whom it was specially intended. It was undertaken in response to a well-defined demand upon the part of Tinners and Cornice-makers for a comprehensive exposition of the principles of pattern cutting as applied to sheet-metal work. Some parts were prepared in direct answer to questions asked by subscribers of The Metal Worker, and appeared in the columns of that journal during the time the work was in progress. The most careful attention has been given throughout to the needs of sheet-metal workers, as made known to the author during his editorial connection with The Metal Worker, and through his previous practical experience in the trade. The aim has been to present a work serviceable alike to the apprentice boy who can afford but a single instruction book, to the mechanic who desires to add to whatever knowledge of pattern cutting he already possesses, to the student who would master the art by systematic investigation, and to all who need occasional assistance in getting over difficult places.
The work is comprised in five general divisions or chapters. In the first, Definitions and Technicalities are considered. The various mathematical and mechanical terms which it has been found necessary to use in the book, and which are current among mechanics, are explained, and such architectural terms as are commonly employed in cornice shops have been defined. Illustrations have been employed wherever their use has seemed advantageous. Following this is a chapter on Drawing Tools and Materials, prepared to meet the wants of those who commence drawing as a preliminary step to pattern cutting. This in turn is followed by a selection of simple Geometrical Problems, chosen with particular reference to the needs of students of pattern cutting. Various ways of solving the same problem, and the use of different instruments in accomplishing the same object, are presented in order to give the mechanic the widest range of choice in methods. At this stage the theoretical chapter of the work is presented, and is entitled the "Art and Science of Pattern Cutting." It is an attempt to explain the principles underlying all the operations of pattern cutting in such a way as will enable the student to make intelligent application of them, irrespective of formulated rules. Mechanics who already possess a fair degree of ability as pattern cutters, but who are perplexed when unusual combinations arise, may find in this division of the book all they require to render them proficient. Following this is a selection of Pattern Problems, arranged for the most part in classes, so that those of a kind will be found together. Each problem, so far as possible, has been demonstrated independently of all others. This arrangement has been followed to facilitate occasional use of the book by those who do not care to go through it in course. The work is completed by a comprehensive index, which it is believed will be found useful when searching for any required problem. The names of some of the ordinary articles of ware made in tin shops have been included in it, with references to the rules which may be employed in developing their patterns.
The "Metal Worker Pattern Book" was prepared from the mechanic's standpoint. In diction and style it will be found suited to the needs of workmen of the most ordinary attainments. Each proposition is expressed and demonstrated in language which the average reader will have no difficulty in understanding, and which the apprentice can read without becoming confused or discouraged.
