A Hidden Gem
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 14 years ago
This is one of the best written and best illustrated how-to books I have ever seen. If you are a woodworker, metal worker, or handyman, you may not realize how many useful things you can do with polycarbonate, PVC, and 15 other types of plastic...using many of the tools you already have. This book will open your mind to a universe of possibilities. Get a used copy for the price of a cup of coffee. Hundreds of practical tips for fabrication and repair, all do-able in the home workshop. Welding, bending, gluing, drilling, cutting, fastening. Detailed info on the many types of plastic. As an example, there is a table showing what types of glue to use for 9 different types of plastic, when gluing to itself, wood, or metal.
Excellent book!
