I'm a retired Maths Teacher. Many years ago I found this old book on Practical Geometry and Solid Geometry, published in 1890. Slightly disillusioned that so many construction techniques required in Modern School Maths, principally based on locus questions, lacked a degree of practical authenticity, the ideas in the book suggested some historical applications of maths that could entwine history, maths and engineering. 2020 saw me with extra time on my hands, so provided an opportunity to explore the contents of this book in more detail. I hope you might both use traditional pencil and compass constructions, but also  use some geometry software too. Please feedback thoughts, comments and suggestions. It is potentially such a large field of ideas to follow.........
