What reading level is A Shorter Course in Woodworking; a Practical Manual for Home And School book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:

348 Fig. 349 A templet, or pattern, is sometimes used to secure accuracy in turning some shapes. It is merely an exact reverse outline of the required form cut in sheet metal or thin wood and applied to the work to test it. Stop the lathe before applying the templet. It is best to learn to turn by eye as far as possible and to resort to such tests only when necessary.
The general principle of finishing turning is the same as with other work. See Finishing, page 188. The wood can be filled, if r
...equired, and the filler cleaned off with shavings. A common way to polish is with a 126 A Shorter Course in Woodworking pad. Put a little oil on a cloth, pour on shellac and make a pad to hold against the work. Shellac can also be applied with a brush, revolving the work by hand, and afterwards rubbing down in the usual way.
Lathes are also adapted for screw-cutting, and have various tool- holding and self-feeding attachments — also knife attachments by which patterns can be turned automatically at great speed, and appliances for turning a great variety of odd shapes, as twisted or "rope" patterns, — but such matters belong to advanced work and manufacturing purposes, rather than to the elementary principles of hand- turning.
