Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Engineers' and General Smiths' Work: The Smith and Forgeman's Handbook of Practical Smithing and Forging, With Numerous Illustrations, Examples and Tables The absence of a useful and practical treatise on the art of Smithing and Forging was a source of great disappointment to the Author in his early days, and often since then, he has wondered why no one ventures to devote himself to the subject through the great medium of the press, with a view to helping and interesting their fellow smiths. The Author, after a life experience in the trade as a Smith, Forger, Stamper and Fore man, seeks in the following pages to submit some sound and practical suggestions on the subject, which he hopes will be interesting and instructive to those in the trade. The tables at the end have been compiled with a view to usefulness, and no doubt they will often prove a convenience to the reader. This work does not pretend to be a learned and classical treatise, such as would be expected from some great professor, but simply a plain straightforward statement of the experience of a practical smith, and the Author trusts that this will prove.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Handbook of Art Smithing: For the Use of Practical Smiths, Designers of Ironwork, Technical and Art Schools, Architects, Etc Professor Franz Sales Meyer's previous works on the Science of Ornament, of which his Handbook of Ornament, in the best known in this country, entitle his views and writings to respectful attention, though his knowledge of smith-craft is theoretical rather than practical. This, to one less highly trained, would have proved a serious difficulty, but brought up from his cradle in an atmosphere of technical education, he has made himself thoroughly acquainted with the metier of which he treats. Passing from the Teachers Training College at Meersburg to the Technical Academy at Carlsruhe, he has been successively appointed teacher in the Art Trade School and the Building Trade School, and finally, in 1879 at the age of thirty, Professor at that establishment. He has also produced as joint author, handbooks treating of metal work, cabinet work, carpen tering, and painting. Of these, the present work is, to English craftsmen, undoubtedly the most interesting. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Download or read book Forge Work Classic Reprint written by William L. Ilgen and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-10-13 with total page 224 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: William L. Ilgen's book Forge Work is an instructional text detailing metalwork, and more specifically working with a forge. The original purpose of the book, as outlined in the author's preface, was to commit to text many of the oral instructions provided to metalworking and blacksmithing students so that they may have a reference document to which they can refer. Divided into eight chapters, Forge Work is a thorough and expansive reference book. The book begins with an introduction to the tools and appliances commonly used by smiths. Ilgen's writing is accessible for the layperson, so much so that a reader with no experience in forging could comfortably make this book their introduction into the craft. From his introduction to the tools, Ilgen progresses to a discussion of some specific forging operations, including straightening, twisting, welding, and scarfing, among many others. The author outlines various practice exercises to be used by students of metalworking so as to improve their skills and understanding of the craft. Later chapters cover more advanced topics, such as the treatment of steel, tool making, art smithing, and scroll work. Pictures are included throughout, however many have unfortunately not survived republication. William L. Ilgen's Forge Work is a success as both a textbook for students of metal work and as a reference book for those more experienced in the craft. The index that concludes the book is invaluable, and the clear and concise directions throughout make for an illuminating read. While other books have been published on the topic, few cover the information with as much depth and breadth as Forge Work.

Download or read book Practical Blacksmithing written by M. T. Richardson and published by Chartwell Books. This book was released on 2017-10-24 with total page 915 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The blacksmith’s ABCs—learn metalworking as taught by the old masters! The forging of metal gave birth to the Iron Age, and Practical Blacksmithing is the classic primer on the craft that shaped modern civilization. Featuring more than 1,000 illustrations, this foundational text describes every aspect of working with iron and steel, and is essential for both the do-it-yourself backyard blacksmith and the professional metalworker. Originally published in four volumes in the early 20th century, this hefty, single-volume, new edition of Practical Blacksmithing is different from similar books in that it includes contributions by working tradesmen. In addition to its clear and concise instructional material, the book’s editor collected the actual words of old-time blacksmiths offering their best methods, unique how-tos, original techniques, and arcane knowledge. Industrialization and mass production may have led to the disappearance of the blacksmith from everyday life, but the art of metalwork never died. It smoldered like hot coals in a forge, and today those coals are red hot as craftsman taking up blacksmithing as a hobby or art form seek to learn the foundational aspects of the trade. Proving that what may be old can actually be new and useful, Practical Blacksmithingdescribes all the important smithing processes: welding, brazing, soldering, cutting, bending, setting, tempering, fullering and swaging, forging, and drilling. It also includes the early history of blacksmithing and describes tools used since ancient times. In addition to thousands of other useful facts, the modern blacksmith will be introduced to old tools and learn how to make them, and can even learn how to build a retro blacksmith shop with detailed do-it-yourself plans!

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Plain and Ornamental Forging Among the many treatises on technical subjects, few of a really practical and helpful character are to be found on the general subject of art metal and blacksmith work.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Forging M I introduction Al, 6 HE art of blacksmithing is an ancient one and for centuries, probably, was the only metal-working profession. With the development of the method of casting iron, the cheapness of this useful process brought about a wider adoption of cast iron forms than was justified by the fragile nature of the castings used. In later years the fields of usefulness of the two types of metal work have been very definitely fixed by the require ments of construction, the element of tensile strength, and the expansion of the methods of production manufacturing. The development of drop forging had also a marked effect upon the return to forging methods, particularly in the small tool field, the skill in the use of power hammers and the use of gang.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Practical Blacksmithing, Vol. 4: A Collection of Articles Contributed at Different Times by Skilled Workmen to the Columns of "the Blacksmith and Wheelwright" Vol. I. Of this series was devoted to a consideration of the early history of blacksmithing, together with shop plans and improved methods of constructing chimneys and forges. Vol. II.

The subject of tools is continued in the first and second chapters, after which the volume is de voted chiefly to a description of a great variety of jobs of work. In the present volume we have continued the very interesting topic of jobs of work, and have devoted considerable space to the subjects of cutting, bending, welding and setting of tires, setting axles, resetting old springs, making hob sleds, the tempering of tools; bolts, nuts, the working and welding of steel, etc. The last chapter is wholly given up to the compilation of a set of tables giving the sizes and weights of iron and steel.
