Here, fully updated to include new machines and electronic/digital controls, is the ultimate guide to basic machine shop equipment and how to use it. Whether you're a professional machinist, an apprentice, a trade student, or a handy homeowner, this fully illustrated volume helps you define tools and use them properly and safely. It's packed with review questions for students, and loaded with answers you need on the job.
This is a fantastic primer and reference book for anyone who works with hand and power tools whether for wood or metal. In an easy to access format the author covers topics ranging from basic tool design and its use, to critical math skills used in any size shop. There is a chapter devoted to electrical trouble shooting of powered machines such as lathes and mills, to feeds and speeds used for various metals and bits. Questions about measuring objects are answered, clamping and securing work, cleaning and abrasives, and cutting tools. Each chapter has a review section with a test to aid in comprehension. This and the Machinery's Handbook are the two books I reach for to find the answers every time.
