by Walter K. Palmer (Author)
This is a complete and detailed handbook on technical drawing, originally intended for students of engineering and other related subjects. This profusely illustrated guide contains information on all aspects of mechanic drafting and would make for a fantastic introduction to the subject. Contents include: "Principles of Projection", "General Discussion", "Fundamental Ideas of Projection", "Application to Drawing", "Notation", "General Principles", "Points", "Lines", "Surfaces and Solids", "Point of Sight", "Orthographic Projection", "Scenographic Projection-Perspective", "Drawing", "Conventional Lines", et cetera. Many vintage books such as this are becoming increasingly scarce and expensive. We are republishing this book now in an affordable, high-quality, modern edition complete with a specially commissioned new introduction on technical drawing and drafting.
