Every tool was made by a worse tool.

You do not need a good lathe to build a good lathe. You need a rough one, which makes a better one, which makes a good one. That chain is how every workshop in history got started, and it is what this book is about.

This is Volume Three of Rebuilding Without Power, and it assumes there is nothing to buy: no hardware store, no power tool, no welding gas, no new steel. It starts with a wood fire and a pile of scrap and works forward - charcoal, forge, hammer, first tools, and then everything those tools make.
