A series of ten pamphlets was created, teaching skills that were fun to do and profitable too.Reprinted here in a single volume, and featuring all of the original artwork, these mini instructional courses will entertain men of all ages-even if their workbench is really the living room coffee table! From leather crafts and bookbinding to block printing and cartooning, there's a hobby to be found here for anyone. More ambitious readers may consider learning coping saw techniques, or even ax crafts, which entail making rustic furniture and fixtures using a single hatchet. As charming today as it was industrious then, the book is packaged in a vintage style that authentically captures the can-do spirit of the era.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Mia Karts","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51931623653664,"sku":"NEW1618371649","price":35.16,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/miakarts.com\/products\/popular-mechanics-man-crafts-leather-tooling-fly-tying-ax-whittling-and-other-cool-things-to-do-1618371649","provider":"Miakarts Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
