Real Life Mathematics used by woodworkers
Anyone working with wood, steel, construction, inventing and manufacturing uses their eyeballing skills at some point during the process. Precision instruments ensure a perfect end result.
Practice your eyeballing skills and see some of the examples of woodwork produced in real life using mathematical skills
