Mechanical Drawing

About this book

"Mechanical Drawing" aims to provide a fundamental course on all theory, principles, and methods needed to create a practical working drawing. It outlines a systematic method for mechanical drawing and offers useful information on convention and design, making it ideal for students and novices. Contents include: "Instruments and Their Uses", "Drafting Room Conventions", "Freehand Lettering and Geometric Drawing", "Orthographic Projection", "Representation of Points and Lines", "Representation of Planes", "Orthographic Projection Applied", "Isometrical Projection", "Working Drawings", "Lettering, continued", "Geometrical Drawing, continued", 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. First published in 1919.
