Shipfitters Manual

"Ship tter's Manual" has been written primarily for the bene t of student ship tters who at the very outset of their training period realize a dire need for some suitable guide in their study of the trade. Its purpose is to provide the groundwork upon which a student may build for him-self a complete and thorough knowledge of Ship tting by practical application of its contents. The nest book,
course of instruction or staif of instructors in ship tting can do no more than merely provide the necessary foundation for learning; the true development of a Ship tter rests entirely with the student through individual resourcefulness, courage and initiative in solving the various trade problems that may arise and the ability to co-ordinate trade studies with practical trade experience.
