Description: Leonard Bailey and His Woodworking Planes, Hardcover by Van Pernis, Paul; Wells, John G., ISBN 1931626405, ISBN-13 9781931626408, Brand New, Free shipping in the US New Englander Leonard Bailey was one of the inventive geniuses of the
American Industrial Revolution. His designs and patented inventions solved
problems with woodworking planes that had plagued craftsmen for centuries. His
planes allowed woodworkers to transition from the age of wooden carpenter’s
planes to modern, metallic, fully adjustable planes suitable for any kind of
woodworking. His plane designs are still in use throughout the world and are
essentially unchanged from the planes he first made in the 1860’s. He deserves
more credit than he has received among America’s great inventors.
This book covers the thirty-two-year period in Leonard Bailey’s life
between 1852 when he began inventing, making and selling woodworking
tools in Winchester, Massachusetts, through his years at the Stanley Rule & Level
Company from 1869–1874, and ends in 1884 when he worked in Hartford,
Connecticut, and sold his Victor Tool business to the Stanley Rule & Level Company.
