Transcriber's Note:

There is no Fig. 19; and Fig. 47 had no caption—caption added from text.

Some of the illustrations were on numbered pages which contained no text.
Illustrations have been moved to more relevant places, and extraneous page numbers removed.
Page number references from the Index, and from within the text, have been corrected where necessary.

(sundry commas added to Bibliograpy, as needed for consistency.)

ERRATA, and [sic]
Page 13: 'thoroly' [sic] period spelling for 'thoroughly'.
Page 16: 'If a horse fall ...' [sic] 'If a horse (should) fall ...'
Page 47: 'eargerly' corrected to 'eagerly'. (They are eagerly sought after...).
Page 47: 'chlorid' corrected to 'chloride'. (zinc chloride).
Page 58: 'splinttering' corrected to 'splintering'.
Page 63: 'especally' corrected to 'especially'.
Page 90: 'varities' corrected to 'varieties'.

Page 162: Replaced two gaps in text with 'wedges' and 'No. 34'. (No. 35. A wedged ... by driving the wedges into saw kerfs in the tenon instead of along its sides as in No. 34.)
Page 189: 'Fig. 285, E' corrected to 'Fig. 285, C' (The cover may have cleats on its underside, Fig. 285, C, which fit just inside the box and keep the top in place.)
Page 219: 'funiture' corrected to 'furniture'. (...some are for floors, some for furniture,...)
