Project Gutenberg 2008-11-12 Public domain in the USA. 2033 Welsh, Peter C. 66061920 Woodworking Tools 1600-1900 Produced by Chris Curnow, Joseph Cooper, Greg Bergquist and the Online Distributed Proofreading Team at https://www.pgdp.net "Woodworking Tools 1600-1900" by Peter C. Welsh is a historical account written in the mid-20th century. This book provides a comprehensive examination of the evolution of woodworking hand tools over a period of three centuries, focusing primarily on the changes and developments that occurred from the 17th to the 20th century in the United States. It discusses various aspects, including the specialization of tools, their configuration, and the broader context of changes in craftsmanship during this time. The content of the book details the gradual evolution of woodworking tools, driven by both technical advancements and the demands of craftsmen. Welsh examines how tools transformed through the hands of generations, often losing their precise origins due to continued use and adaptation. The book also highlights the lack of detailed historical records, emphasizing the importance of surviving artifacts in museums and restorations. Welsh's exploration includes various tool types, the growth of American craftsmanship, and the aesthetic appeal of these tools, blending historical information with an appreciation of their design and craftsmanship throughout the centuries.
