Available for the first time since World War Two – these booklets are part of a series from the U.S. Navy Bureau of Aeronautics explain and illustrate the processes and techniques used to convey the lines on blueprints of aircraft and aircraft components, to the templets used to make the actual aircraft parts. This is nearly lost technology and knowledge, that can NOW be in your hands. Please note that these are all reproductions, not originals. They were reproduced in 2012 by Nation Builder Books (that’s us!), Mebane, NC, 27302. They were originally published for the U.S. Navy Bureau of Aeronautics by the International Textbook Co., Scranton, Pennsylvania. Templets and Layout: Mock Up, Part 1, 1943, 5 1/4 x 8 1/4 , 40 pages. Mock-ups are used for developing aircraft contours, especially where irregular and complicated shapes are located. This booklet is illustrated with over 30 photos and a dozen drawings show a mock-up department, and the actual building of a plaster mock-up. Includes explanations of reference lines and checking procedure; laying out lines; methods of scribing lines on horizontal mock-ups; and laying out lines on circular and large vertical mock-ups. Templets and Layout: Mock Up, Part 2, 1943, 5 1/4 x 8 1/4 , 39 pages. This booklet continues the explanation of Part 1, but is devoted to building female plaster casts of mock-ups. It is as richly illustrated as Part 1. Sections include Taking Pattern of Airplane Parts from Plaster Cast; Taking Die Impression from Plaster Cast; Making Kirksite Form-Block Pattern; Forming Circular Female Contour in Plaster Mold; Bridge Parallel Fixture for Checking Pattern Draft. The second half deals with Box Templet and Wood Mock-up, including Box Templet for Checking Form of Skin Sections; Scribing Straight Trim Lines; Scribing Radial Trim Lines; and making a Full-Size Wooden Mock-up of an entire aircraft.
