A complete illustrated book on how to use the lathe from 1869. The book has been proofread may have some typos. There are two distinct kinds of work done in foot lathes-the useful and the merely ornamental. Both afford enjoyment and profit to those who practice them. The mechanic who earns his living by working ten hours a day in a workshop, does not care to go home and pursue the same calling in the evening; but he can institute an agreeable change in his life, beautify his dwelling, and cultivate his taste, by the use of the lathe, and thus obtain ornaments that would cost large sums if purchased at the stores; or he may, indeed, make the lathe a source of revenue, and sell the product of his skill and ingenuity at high prices to those who admire, but have not the ability to construct.
