T5 - Restoring, Tuning & Using Classic Woodworking Tools - Michael Dunbar -

Pretty much a classic. The title says it all. Dunbar created a great
reference with this one. If you do not have it, you need it. Just a great

up and read. Still learning new things from it.

T10 - The Antique Tool Collectors Guide to Value - Ronald S. Barlow - $5
Copy 1. I keep one of these in the back pocket of the car, just to read and
pass time when waiting for somebody. Lots of info on tools and pictures.
Prices are very out of date. I think it was Sandy who said that if a vendor
pulls this out to check a price on something you are going to buy, you know
you are getting a deal on it. Good reference none the less.

T12 - The Stanley Plane - Alvin Sellens - $15
It is a great book. An undeniable classic by Alvin Sellens. This one
really started it all. Copyright is 1975 by The Early American Industries
Association, this is the Fifth Printing 1982. 216 pages long (to give you
an idea, John Walter devotes 145 pages to planes in his book Antique &
Collectible Stanley Tools Guide to Identity & Value). Has a numerical
listing of all the planes produced by Stanley with pictures, information
about names, general usage, date of offerings, length, weight and general
info on the planes. Also has sections about Stanley and the people of
Stanley. I would say that this is an indispensable reference for the user
and collector of Stanley planes. A true classic. Good shape with partial
dust jacket as shown.

T13 - Dictionary of Woodworking Tools - R. A. Salaman - $15
I would say this book and Sellens Dictionary of American Hand Tools are
primary references for tools. A great book that I use to identify tools and
to learn about there usage. One you need if you do not have.

T17 - With Hammer in Hand - Charles Hummel - 2nd Printing 1982 - $60
Chris Schwarz said of this book - When it comes to landmark books in the
woodworking craft, it is hard to beat Charles Hummel's With Hammer in Hand.
This pioneering book chronicles the lives, tools and projects of the Dominy
family.... ...the Dominys built amazing stuff using very simple (yet
refined) tools and an impressive amount of skill. This is a great book that
sells for far more on the general secondary market. Originally printed in
1968, this is the second edition from 1982. Dust jacket is there and
complete with some minor tears on it. A massive book.
