[TheForge] How to Work Sheet Metal now Sonn

Sat Aug 24 12:37:05 2002

Actually the book Early American Wrought Iron by A. Sonn came 
out in the late 20's and consisted on 3 separate volumes.

The later version, and the one I was quoted, was the edition that 
many people call the 3 in 1 edition or call the "Bonanza edition" 
(the publisher)  that came out in the late 70's.

It's a great book but not that easy to find anymore at a decent price.
