About this book
Mechanics, Indoors and Out is by Fred T. Hodgson and appears under the heading The Children's Library of Work and Play. A line beneath a photograph of a motor boat model says that, in the making of little models of this kind, you will encounter many things that will tax your skill and ingenuity, as amateur workmen. Fred and George were at work before their father was out, and Nick arrived, bringing a spade, a crowbar, and a pick.
A trench for the pathway is dug a little over four feet wide and about eight inches deep. Directions for a sundial say to get an old tin clock-dial from a jeweller in the city or, if that fails, to make a dial out of cardboard, printing the hours in ink. A passage on the type-writer says type-writer after type-writer appeared on the market in Europe and America, and that a few came to stay but the many disappeared.
