Along with present-day Articles, Plans, Games, Safety and Tips, this CDbook also contains a re-print of Radford's Cyclopedia of Construction - Carpentry, Building and Architecture * The Steel Square and Its Uses. It was originally published in 1909. Although this is from a vintage print, it is packed with valuable information for the woodworker/contractor who wants to learn about the many uses of the steel square for stair building, roof framing, and much more. The original book is 372 pages with over 200 illustrations, which is included within this CDbook. Information about this CDbook and four actual screen captures are available below.
