For those interested in an online book on woodturning, go to Milton and Wohler, "A Course in Wood Turning," (1919) available at

Thanks Derek.
I have searched Guttenburg several times and have never found a woodworking book!
This one was added in March, lets hope this is the start of a trend.

Have a look in the Handtool and Machinery section for "All you wanted to know about Japanning ...", and now you have two ebooks on woodwork! :)

Yikes! That gutemberg site lists that one needs 16 woodturning tools! Thats more than most suppliers carry in stock! I understand that the book is about teaching woodturning. No beginner needs more than 6 and a pro probably never uses more than six!

I'll have a closer look at the book later. Thanks Derek.
