Mechanical Drawing is a comprehensive guide to the principles and techniques of mechanical drawing, written by John Simpson Reid and first published in 1919. The book covers a wide range of topics, including the use of drawing instruments, the construction of geometric shapes and figures, the projection of objects in different planes, and the representation of machine parts and mechanisms.The book is divided into four main sections. The first section provides an introduction to the basic principles of mechanical drawing, including the use of drawing instruments, the construction of geometric shapes, and the projection of objects in different planes. The second section focuses on the representation of machine parts and mechanisms, including gears, cams, and linkages. The third section covers the drawing of architectural and engineering plans, including floor plans, elevations, and sections. The final section provides a series of exercises and projects designed to help students develop their skills in mechanical drawing.Throughout the book, Reid emphasizes the importance of accuracy and precision in mechanical drawing, and provides detailed instructions and examples to help students achieve these qualities in their own work. The book is illustrated with numerous diagrams, drawings, and photographs, making it an invaluable resource for students, engineers, and anyone interested in the principles and techniques of mechanical drawing.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
