What reading level is Woodworking Tools 1600-1900 book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
--1704: THE FLOOR PLANE OR LONG JOINER ofNorwegian origin exhibits the characteristic decoration of the stock andmouth, patterns common on tools of northern European and Scandinavianorigin. (_Courtesy of the Norsk Folkemuseum, Oslo, Norway. _)] Intended to establish proportion and to insure precision, it seems anatural consequence that dividers and calipers should in themselvesreflect the same sense of balance and grace that they were designed togovern. Still, even the most prosaic examples of ...woodworking tools, completely divorced from the quasi-mathematical devices of measure andproportion, have this quality and can be admired solely as decorativeobjects. This is most evident in the three European bench planesillustrated in figures 21, 22, and 23: one Norwegian, dated 1704; oneDutch (accession 319562), dated 1756; and one German, dated 1809. TheNorwegian and German examples, with their elaborately carved bodies andheart-shaped mouths, are typical of the type that Swedish and Germancolonists in America might have used in the 17th and 18th centuries.
