american planer shaper and slotter builders: American Planer, Shaper and Slotter Builders Kenneth L. Cope, 2002 Here is the first book to identify American builders of planers, shapers and slotters, who operated throughout the 19th and early 20th centuries. Written in the style of the author's previous groundbreaking books on the American machine tool industry, this volume provides the reader with invaluable information on over 300 makers. Some are very well known, but many have previously gone virtually unrecognized by researchers. More than 1000 illustrations, taken from original catalogs and contemporary periodicals, show how these machines developed: starting out in the early 1800s as crude, hand-built copies of English machines and becoming, over the course of a century, monster machines weighing nearly one million pounds, unmatched elsewhere in the world. Numerous machine accessories, such as chucks, dividing heads, milling attachments and keyseating attachments, among others, are identified and illustrated. In addition, the book includes a glossary of terms used in describing the various types of planers, shapers and slotters, and provides illustrations that help identify the individual parts of the machines. |
american planer shaper and slotter builders: English and American tool builders Joseph Wickham Roe, 2025-03-02 In 'English and American Tool Builders,' Joseph Wickham Roe meticulously charts the evolution of tool manufacturing in the English and American contexts from the late 18th to the early 20th centuries. The book presents a detailed examination of the technological innovations and the craftsmen behind them, highlighting the interplay between industrial growth and artisanal skill. Roe employs a scholarly yet accessible prose style, infused with rich historical context and technical insights, making it an invaluable resource for both historians and industry professionals. The work encapsulates the rise of mechanization while celebrating the artistry inherent in tool making, underscoring a period of profound change in industrial society. Joseph Wickham Roe, an astute scholar of industrial history and a toolmaker himself, brings a unique perspective to this study. His firsthand experience in the field provides authenticity to his analysis, while his extensive research unearths lesser-known narratives of craftsmen that shaped the industry. Roe's background lends not only depth to his arguments but also an appreciation for the significance of manual skill in an era increasingly leaning toward automation. I highly recommend 'English and American Tool Builders' to anyone with an interest in the historical evolution of technology, craftsmanship, and industrial innovation. This work serves as both a scholarly reference and a compelling narrative that will engage historians, students, and practitioners alike, enriching their understanding of how these traditional crafts laid the foundation for modern manufacturing. |

You must purchase both volumes to have a complete copy of this book. In 1905, the American Railway Master mechanics Association adopted a resolution, authorizing the creation of ¿...an illustrated dictionary of each and every part used in the building of locomotives.¿ The result, edited by famed technical writer George Fowler and published by the railroad gazette, was nearly 700 pages long, and richly illustrated with photographs, etchings, and blueprints. The Locomotive Dictionary was a triumph, and became one of the definitive engineering references for the railroad industry during the steam age. This high-quality reprint of a first edition of this wonderful book, represents the first time in decades that it has been available to the public. Softbound in two volumes, it is a wonderful reference that no steam fan or model railroader should be without. |
