It is designed to guide the apprentice from day one in the workshop, through the many mathematical applications he will need to master on his journey to becoming a competent craftsman. The information contained in this book will not become faded with age, or outdated, because the formulae contained herein are just as relevant today as they were when they were written down eons ago. The purpose of this book is to bring them all together in an easy to understand manner with working examples and explanatory diagrams.
