The book is a comprehensive guide to the art of saw-filing, a skill that was essential in the 19th century for carpenters, woodworkers, and sawyers. The book begins with an introduction to the history and importance of saw-filing, followed by a detailed explanation of the tools and materials needed for the process. Holly then delves into the scientific principles behind saw-filing, including the physics of saw teeth and the properties of different types of wood. The bulk of the book is devoted to the practical aspects of saw-filing, with step-by-step instructions for filing different types of saws, including rip saws, crosscut saws, and circular saws. Holly also covers topics such as sharpening, setting, and maintaining saws, as well as troubleshooting common problems that can arise during the saw-filing process. Throughout the book, Holly emphasizes the importance of precision and attention to detail in saw-filing, and he provides numerous illustrations and diagrams to help readers understand the techniques he describes. The book is written in a clear and accessible style, making it a valuable resource for anyone interested in the art of saw-filing, whether as a hobby or a profession.With Full And Explicit Directions For Putting In Order All Kinds Of Saws, From A Jeweler's Saw To A Steam Saw-Mill.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
