PutnamEco Posted September 9, 2012 Author Report Share Posted September 9, 2012 Here is a rather basic book on power tools from the series The Art of Woodworking, titled Portable Power Tools available as a free download as a .djvu filehttp://en.bookfi.org/book/438895It does have a few nice pictures of vintage power tools and you may or may not find some useful tips.

Highdesert Splintermaker Posted April 29, 2014 Report Share Posted April 29, 2014 I got the Dangerous Book For Boys for my oldest grandson a few years back. I honestly don't know what he's done with it but I thought I sure would have found it interesting in my early teens. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Highdesert Splintermaker Posted April 29, 2014 Report Share Posted April 29, 2014 I just recently bought from Amazon a book called "Great Book of Woodworking Tips." 336 pages, 8- 1/2 x 11, with color illustrations, containing "over 650 ingenious workshop tips, techniques, and secrets from the experts at American Woodworker." It's nicely done and easy enough to digest a few tips at a time. Makes the perfect throne room companion. Another book I thought was excellently done is Terrie Noll's "The Joint Book." It's a complete guide to wood joinery citing both manual and power tool ways to accomplish a multitude of joints - some I never knew existed. It has a covered ring bound spine so the pages will lie flat and the pages are heavy gauge treated paper that will easily wipe clean with a damp cloth.
