PREFACE.Advanced Projects in Woodwork is a collection of projects designed to meet the needs of classes
in high school woodworking. These projects presuppose familiarity with woodworking processes,tools, and the two simple joints required in the making of projects contained in the author's Pro-jects in Beginning Woodwork and Mechanical Drawing.The drawings are complete only as to their general dimensions. The working out of details,such as the sizes of mortises and tenons and their locations, is left for the pupil in his work indrawing and design.
It is expected that the projects will afford suitable basic material for classes in woodworkingdesign. It remains for the instructor to point out the manner in which this material may be used.For illustration, many beginning students are slow in appreciation of possible modifications instructure or decoration. Circular tops may be used instead of square or octagonal, and vice versa.Modification of the manner of filling side spaces with slats offers variety in initiative. Verticalposts may be made tapering and vice versa. Rails and stretchers may be variously employed.There is almost always a choice in the matter of joints,keyed or thru or blind tenon. Fig. i issuggestive as to possible modifications of a type.
In addition to the possible structural modifications, the plates suggest variation in the matterof decorative ornament such as pierced and carved forms and simple inlay. Such ornament will,of course, be kept subordinate to the structural design.The upholstering of stool tops and seats for chairs provides another problem in variation.
Little, if any, use is made of dowels as substitutes for the mortise-and-tenon. While it is truethat modern commercial practice makes much use of dowels in this way, the author feels thatsuch practice is too often contrary to the principles of good construction. Its genesis lies ineconomy of material rather than in any superiority as a fastening device.
In the designing of these projects the author has had in mind at all times the thought that most

ADVANCED PROJECTS IN WOODWORKof the students using them would have access only to a band-saw or jig-saw and a miter-box in ad-dition to the regular hand tool equipment. For this reason such projects as hall clocks, missionbeds, etc., have been excluded. The exceptional student will find projects of sufficient size to
Fi& 1.
tax his ability and muscle. Easier projects and lighter projects have been provided for the weakermembers of the class while the use of slats or their omission will provide additional variation intime of execution.The use of stock ordered S-4-S (surfaced on four sides) has not been anticipated. The useof stock S-2-S and moldings such as are carried in stock by lumber yards is presupposed. If aworking principle for the use of stock partly prepared were asked for it would be : Any material

PREFACEthat is carried as stock and which does not h^ve to be ordered especially worked for the projecta boy elects or designs may be made use of legitimately. Such a principle would permit the useof stock S-2-S, moldings of stock pattern, hardware such as hinges and locks without any sug-gestion of deception. It would exclude table legs and tops, etc., especially prepared at a mill, andoffers a rational di\'i(ling line between two extremes, neither of which is desirable.Of course, these projects may be used in the teaching of the use of woodworking machinery.No definite notes as to methods of procedure are given in this book for the student is supposedto have acquired, thru experience with the projects in the elementary book, enough insight to en-able him to proceed on his own accord. Definite instruction in making the new joints, in wood-finishing, etc. will be found in Esscntiiih of JVondivorkhiir, (ir Woodwork for Secondary Schools, com-]janion books by the same author.
While these projects arc especially arranged fur use with the courses outlined and discussed inCorrelated Courses in Jl'oodivork and Mechanical Draivini^, by the author, there is nothing in the form ofthe plates themselves to prevent their being used with any course in woodwork.July, 1912 IRA S. GRIFFITH.The inking of the drawings and the making of the
perspectives in this book is the worl< of Mr. GeorgeGordon Kellar.

INSTRUCTIONS FOR MAKING BILL OF MATERIAL.Under "pieces" put the number of parts that are alike.Under "size" put the various dimensions of pieces. In
finding the sizes of the various pieces of lumber, e.xaminethe working drawings for finished dimensions, making dueadditions for tenons, then ad.j Yi," to the v/idth and Yi" tothe length to allow for cutting out and squaring up. Thoynu are to make use of stock mill-planed to thickness, youare to specify the thickness from which this mill-planedstock is got. Allow at least Yi" for mill-planing.Remember that length always means along the grain.Fractions of an inch in width and length are not con-
sidered. Neither are fractions of a cent in the final results.If the fraction is Yi or over, take the next higher wholenumber. If it is less than Y2, drop it. Fractions of an inchin thickness that are over 1" and fractions of a cent inthe price per foot are to be figured as they are.Lumber is measured by the superficial foot which is 1"
X 12" X 12". Boards that are less than 1" thick are soldby surface measure. In other words, boards less than 1"thick are figured for quantity as 1" thick.
Standard sawed thicknesses are 1", 1J4", 1}4", 2", 2Y2"3", ZYi" , 4". Thicknesses less than 1" necessitate re-sawing these sizes. In some communities the price persquare foot for re-sawed stock varies for each differenceof J4" in thickness.
In figuring, multiply the length by the width by thethickness, by the number of pieces. If any piece is lessthan 1" thick figure it as 1". Combine all results that arethe same in price per foot. Reduce to square feet bydividing by 144. Reduce decimally and do not carry theresult beyond tenths place. Dispose of any fractional partbeyond tenths as directed above.The price list gives the price of lumber per 1,000 feet.The price per foot is readily obtainable.In figuring finish for these cabinet pieces, double the
number of feet of stock as given by the stock bill to getthe number of feet of finish. This is only an approximatemethod but is sufficiently accurate for such pieces as areto be made in first jear high school, as specified in GroupIX of this book.

ESSENTIALS OFA textbook written especially for gi-ammar and high schoolstudents. The standard textbook on elementary woodwork-ing. A clear and comprehensive treatment of woodworkingtools, materials, and processes, to supplement, but not totake the place of the instructions given by the teacher. Thebook does not contain a course of models; it may be usedwith any course. Price, 75 cents.PROBLEMS IN WOOD-TURNING. By Fred D. Craw-shaw. In the first place this book is a textbook on thescience and art of wood-turning, illustrated by fifty pensketches. In the second place it is a book of problems25plates covering spindle, faceplate, and chuck turning. Itgives the mathematical basis for the cuts used in turning.In the third place it is a helpful discussion of the principles
of design as applied to objects turned in wood. A valu-able textbook for students' use. Price, SO cents.WORKSHOP NOTE-BOOKWOODWORKING. By Greene.A note-book which furnishes a few general and extremelyimportant directions about tools and processes: and pro-vides space for additional notes and working drawings. Itis essentially a collection of helps, ideas, hints, questions,facts, illustrations, etc. The note-book is full of sugges-tions; shows a keen insisht into subject matter and teach-ing methods and is an effective teaching tool. 15 cents.WOODWORK FOR BEGINNERS.

A students' textbook consisting of 80 plates ofproblems, classified into groups according to principle andarranged according to difficulty of solution. The problemshave been selected with reference to the formation of goodhabits in technique, the interest of the pupils and the sub-jects generallv included in a first-year high school course.Each problem is given unsolved and therefore in proper formto hand to the pupil for solution. Price, 75 cents.
