ABC of the Steel Square and Its Uses - Being a Condensed Compilation From the Copyrighted Works of Fred T. Hodgson, Author of "the Steel Square and Its Uses," "Practical Carpentry" And Numerous Other Works on Building and Construction #268005

The mechanic who reaches a fair degree of perfection by experience, study and applica tion is the man who rises to the surface, and whose steadiness and trustworthiness force themselves on the notice of employers and su perintendents. I have said this in order to give encouragement to those young mechanics who find it up-hill work to master the intricacies of the various arts they are engaged in, for they may rest assured that in the end work and ap plication will be sure to win; and I am certain that a thorough study of the Steel Square and its capabilities will do more than anything else to aid the young workman in mastering many of the mechanical difficulties that will confront him from time to time in his daily occupation.
