Drawing Room Kinks offers practical, era-tested guidance for machinists and draftsmen who want faster, more accurate jigs, fixtures, and drawings.
This edition compiles real-world tips from early 20th‑century engineering journals, presenting a concise, hands‑on approach to tool design and shop standardization. It emphasizes keeping tools in the chest or pocket, choosing ready parts, and applying simple, repeatable methods to improve quality and efficiency.
The book covers the standardization of small drilling jigs, with clear examples of open jigs, box jigs, and other common types. It explains how to select styles, carry stock castings, and design interchangeable parts to streamline production. The material stays practical and actionable, focusing on what works in a busy shop.
