First published in 1901, this book contains a comprehensive guide to making various things out of bamboo, including tables, chairs, cabinets, and more. โBamboo Workโ is highly recommended for anyone with an interest in woodwork and hand making furniture, and it would make for a great addition to DIY collections. Contents include: โBamboo: It's Sources and Usesโ, โHow to Work Bambooโ, โBamboo Tablesโ, โBamboo Chairs and Seatsโ, โBamboo Hall Racks and Standsโ, โBamboo Music Rackโ, โBamboo Cabinets and Bookcasesโ โBamboo Window Blindsโ, โMiscellaneous Articles of Bambooโ, etc. Paul Nooncree Hasluck (1854 โ 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: โTreatise on the Tools Employed in the Art of Turningโ (1881), โThe Wrath-Jobber's Handy Bookโ (1887), and โScrew-Threads and Methods of Producing Themโ (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.
