About This Book

This manual collects practical designs, plans, and step-by-step instructions for inexpensive, home-made tools and furnishings intended to reduce domestic labor in rural households. Organized by room and purpose—kitchen, dining room, porch, miscellaneous, poultry, and dairy—the text provides diagrams and construction notes for items such as vegetable paring tables, strainers, dish drainers, iceless refrigerators, poultry houses, butter- and cheese-making equipment, and simple water and cleaning systems.
