SynopsisExcerpt from Lead Working, Pipe Bending, Tank and Roof Work: A Manual of Practice in Bending Lead Pipe for Interior Plumbing and Beating Sheet Lead for Applications as Tank Linings and Flashings, Gutters, Ridges, and Other Roof Coverings A preface to this book is hardly necessary. Any plumber who has had a general experience knows that the possession of skill in manipulating lead pipe is a valuable asset. The examples of lead pipe bending and sheet lead working that follow are given in the hope that such as desire to acquire that skill will be helped attain it. That a large number of men do wish to become proficient in this line of work was made evi dent by the extensive correspondence between author and interested readers when the text and illustrations began to appear in serial form in the pages of Metal Worker, Plumber and Steam Fitter. That the sheet lead work offers a new and profitable field to many contractors is also obvious. The qual ity of building construction is rapidly improving. In many instances the use of sheet lead is almost imperative when cer tain effects are desired by the architect. Not every roofer can handle the work properly and herein lies the opportunity for profit and prestige. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
