This section is from the book "Paper and Cardboard Construction", by G. F. Buxton, F. L. Curran. Also available from Amazon: Paper and cardboard construction.
Groups of problems for each grade are outlined below as suggested at "A". The full arrangement of problems with a statement of the new processes or those especially emphasized in each problem, by grades, is given below. It is understood that nearly every problem involves some repeat of former processes, besides the new processes. Many of the problems may be omitted if there is not enough time, but some problems should be taken from each group.
