"Copper Work: A Text Book for Teachers and Students in the Manual Arts" by Augustus F. Rose is a comprehensive educational manual written in the early 20th century. This book serves as a guide for teachers and students involved in manual arts education, focusing specifically on the techniques and applications of working with copper and other metals. Through its detailed approach, it aims to enhance the teaching of metalwork in public schools. The book is structured around various hands-on projects and exercises designed to familiarize students with the properties and uses of copper. It covers a range of topics, from basic equipment and materials to specific techniques like soldering, embossing, and enameling. Each chapter provides instructions and illustrations on making various objects such as hinges, pulls, boxes, and more complex items like sconce and picture frames. Rose emphasizes the importance of practical experience and creativity, encouraging students to develop their own designs while mastering skills through manageable tasks. Overall, "Copper Work" is not just a technical manual; it is a resource that inspires and educates future craftsmen in the art of metalwork. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
