Decorative Illustrated Boards. Zustand: Very Good. Reprint. Hardback. Message to previous owner to inside cover. Slight reading marks to boards. This book bridges the gap between craftsmen's textbooks and guides for the novice. It has been written for the modern do-it-yourselfer - who is sufficiently intelligent and technically-minded to understand the intricacies of electrical and plumbing work, sufficiencly dextrous to hang wallpaper straight and to saw wood without sawing his (or Her) thumb, but who lacks the information about material, techniques, products and building methods necessary to do the job. There is something in the book for beginners - not least an understanding that do-it-yourself is not all plain sailing and is something that gains with experience and knowledge. Enthusiasts shouldn't be disappointed either - there's a wealth of technical detail and 'tips of the trade' which can be added to their knowledge. Contents: Decorating. Electricity. Woodworking. Fixings. Building. Floors. Roofs. Doors and Windows. Security. Metalworking. Plumbing. Damp, Rot and Woodworm. Where to Get Help and Advice. Index. Illustrated. Illustrated laminated boards. 320 pp.Is Science Necessary ? Essays on Science and Scientists(We carry a wide selection of titles in The Arts, Theology, History, Politics, Social and Physical Sciences.
