Paul Nooncree Hasluck (1854 - 1916) was an Australian engineer and editor. He was a master of technical writing and father of the do-it-yourself book producing many books on subjects including engineering handicrafts woodwork and more. Other notable works by this author include: Treatise on the Tools Employed in the Art of Turning (1881) The Watch-Jobbers Handy Book (1887) and Screw-Threads and Methods of Producing Them (1887). Many vintage books such as this are increasingly scarce and expensive. It is with this in mind that we are republishing this volume now in an affordable modern high-quality edition complete with a specially-commissioned new biography of the author.
