AND Management of Saws A PRACTICAL TREATISE ON Third Edition. Revised and Enlarged. New York THE NORMAN W. HENLEY PUBLISHING CO. 132 Nassau Street 1912 Copyright 1882 By ROBERT GRIMSHAW, M.E. Copyright 1901 and 1912 By NORMAN W. HENLEY PUBLISHING COMPANY Macgowan & Slipper 30 Beekman Street New York City Preface This book is designed as a practical aid to those who use saws for any purpose. While, as its title implies, it treats principally of saw-filing, it also goes into the questions of gumming, spring-setting, and swaging. The author has tried to bring it up to present successful usage, and will be glad to receive from practical sawyers and others for future editions, questions, suggestions, and information bearing on the subject. Preface to the Third Edition In order to bring this work strictly up-to-date and include the latest ideas and developments of modern methods, this volume has been revised, re-edited and considerable new material added. During many years' experience in using saws of nearly every kind, size and make, and frequently in out-of-the-way localities, many useful and handy ideas have been developed by the Editor, and in order that these original “wrinkles" may prove of use or benefit to others, they have been embodied in the new material added to this volume.
